ok i feel dumb, cause im seriously like a pro with photoshop. but illustrator is pretty new to me, and im woring on a school project. i have various squares, and they overlap, sit on hte edges of others, etc etc. i need to figure out how to select and remove things like the overhang, as well as select the odd shape created by these overlaps, and color it in. thanks a ton, TOTLALLY appreciate the help.

look into using the pathfinder tool. this will group certain objects and eliminate the gap depending on the pathfinder choice you make.

as for choosing the negative.. not to sure how that will workout.. ill look into figurin it out. usually i just have 3 objects and have the middle one be below the others.
