I'm not sure if i'm in the right forum and this might be the most stupid question you've heard on this forum. But how do you make dots like this with illustrator?

i've tried to use brushes, symbols and graphic styles. But the problem is that the dots are all the same size...and i want it going from big to small...

as far as I know, you cant. you will have to change the size manually. I you want to change in an order, chose the second one, press "s", enter, and then you can type the % of size you want to change. and so on for the rest. If you want the space between them to also be the same, I would make those dots form text on a path, with the distance you want, then vectorise the text (ctrl+shift+o), and do the size thingy. hope that helps.

First make a blend between a large and a small circle with a wanted amount of steps.

Then create a spine with pen tool.

Then select the blend+spine and Object>Blend>Replace Spine. Voila!
