I am trying to create a jigsaw piece, and then place a photo so that it fits that shape. Can anyone point me to any online resources that may help?
My knowledge of Photoshop is fair to good. Illustrator is brand new to me. Software is Creative Suite Standard CS on WIN XP

Import photo. Draw shape over top of photo. Select both. Use menu OBJECT/MAKE/MASK.( Command/7 I think )

Oops sorry it should be OBJECT/MASK/MAKE.
Simple error from someone who doesn't actually use Illustrator !!
