: Randomly scale and rotate a bunch of graphics to spread around as a background I would think that this is a common enough request that there is a program / method to achieve this. I'm looking

@Nimeshi706

One option in Illustrator is to turn your object in to a symbol and use the Symbol Sprayer Tool then the various symbol manipulation tools to scale, rotate etc.

This took me all af about 2 minutes:





Another option, as Chris says, is to use Illustrator's Transform functions.

You can use a Tranform effect (not the normal function, but the one in the effects menu), to duplicate your object a number of times:





Then add another transform effect:





Expand the appearance of the result, ungroup the objects, then select all and use the Transform Each function with "Random" checked:

If you have access to adobe illustrator then you can use the TRANSFORM EACH function which has a random option. Lots of control over how random you want it to be too.
