Hey nick, I started using GIMP recently. Am an absolute beginner in any design or editing related fields, and I want to thank you for your absolutely well done tutorials. By far, yours is the only tutorial I will visit on YT. Clear presentation, very easy to follow and it's very friendly from a beginner's perspective to pick up the various knowledge. Thank you very much. Please keep up the good work and we're looking forward to more of your tutorials! Cheers.

[@jamesdavis8731]

Super talented graphic artist here. This guy is the real deal.

[@PilotCube]

Well done, easily explained tutorials. You make great content for people who are venturing into the land of open-source design work. Appreciate it a lot.

[@jeffk9908]

The best tutorials on KZbin. Thanks again.

[@SimonSlothindianer]

Just pure quality tutorials - you're the best.

[@roryi6111]

I can't get over how phenomenal your tutorials are. You have been a life saver for me. I'm definitely considering purchasing your tutorials via your website. Great work!

[@terrymccauley5122]

Always good to hear from you, thanx for the lesson

[@lalakersoneal]

Your tutorial is by far the best I have watched. Thank you !🤓

[@srevatsan4954]

There is a "wow" factor to the way you present and teach. Amazing Nick. you rock!!!

[@happystar1000]

Great tutorial as always Nick.... thank you very much. You can move multiple cutout paths at once also. Instead of floating one piece at a time, after you close out one path, you can hold shift and trace out a new selection area with the paths tool....and both paths will act as one You can even do more if you repeat the hold shift and make a new path...Any transformation etc you do to one will be applied to all. I like your method though...I understand why you did it this way as well. and I'm learning alot from your tutorials

[@j65uk]

I've watched a few of your tutorials now and they're excellent thank you!

[@javiercastilloaparicio]

Great tutorial, I just used this to make an animation of a plate braking after a shot for a videogame.

[@1GrecianUrn]

Thanks for another great tutorial, Nick. I just bought your 150 logos through your website, and I just want to suggest that you maybe point more easily to the offer somewhere in your website's navigation. Maybe I overlooked the link, but I ended up using your search and only finding it because I remembered the number 150 that I had seen somewhere.

[@Bloernsen]

You are awesome. I love what you do.

[@parvinmozafari3173]

That's extraordinary

[@EscapeAdventures]

Question: How much would you charge to create thumbnails for my videos? Not sure if you are available but thought i would ask. Do you do any video editing? Awesome work my friend, I'm amazed at your skill!

[@GuzanGames]

Following this tutorial to a tee and can't seem to find the merge down as im seeing different when i right click. Any advice?

AWSOME THANKYOUUU

[@erega74]

[@ankurc]

[@ymagista6708]

why does it say 'clicking here does nothing, try clicking on path elements' when i try to do the cutout bit

[@MR.SKANDAL0121]

The unified transform tool isn't on my gimp program for some reason just says cage transform & shift L doesn't do anything either could you help me please?

Superb!

what is the gimp version u were using in this video?

[@spankrocketgaming294]

float is greyed out for me, il keep trying with the path tool

[@Durio_zibethinus]

Hello Nick, I want to ask a beginner question: Is it necessary to re-install dark skin every update? Thanks before 😊

[@SL-ex3uz]

The dark interface is already included in GIMP since update 2.10

[@Durio_zibethinus]

@@SL-ex3uz oh, thank you for the answer 😀

[@SL-ex3uz]

+Durio sp No problem, man!

[@aburaaed20111fa]

not working when I did edit=fill with BG color ?? I did the same please help me

[@Gideskog]

Great tutorial! Why do you use "paths"tool instead of the "free select" tool when moving parts of the letters? Is there any benefits from doing that?

[@LogosByNick]

No advantage in particular. I just wanted those sharp-looking hard edges to get that broken glass look.

[@NebRadojkovic]

Great video. I don't understand why I don't have all the tools on my Gimp? I am working on Linux mint.

[@Moltensheep]

How do you make the icons on the bar to the left so big?

[@surinfarmwest6645]

Nick, as always, thank you for taking the time and effort to share your knowledge. I feel a Sunday afternoon of "Research" will be happening :-) West

[@miladsoltani3950]

Thank you very much

[@chandankhandelwal9202]

can we use this design in tshirt printing with same dimension

[@sudeeprajkirodian6499]

THANK YOU SIR

[@DeboraSolnik]

why did you use the path tool to later create a selection from it instead of just using the lasso tool? like, is there a reason or is it just preference?

[@LogosByNick]

Just preference. Either tool will work.

[@DeboraSolnik]

@@LogosByNick oh ok thank you :)

[@Rick03038]

Hi Nick, quick question.... I am thinking of using thus effect for my pool teams shirts. Is there a way to expand the center of the text so it looks like an eight ball is crashing through? Thanks in advance....Rick

[@aaronaayan4940]

Thanks

[@eterno1610]

This one looks similar to exploding text effect. :) Nick, would you consider making "wax seal" logo?

[@LogosByNick]

Yes, similar in some ways, but introduces some new techniques. Wax seal is a great idea! I'll see about doing something like that with either Inkscape or GIMP.

[@eterno1610]

yes, either way will be fine. : )

[@jamesdavis8731]

I would prefer Gimp, but not being choosy. Love these videos. One thing I wish you could do is explain THE WHY of what you are doing. I can follow your tutorials really well, but at times (many times) I don't totally understand the WHY. If you could briefly explain the WHY's at times I think more of us would understand the thought process.

[@MrRedhawk16]

You are a Boss !

[@ProgrammerSheep]

Good tutorial, you should probably put some music in the time lapse clip.

[@abhishek0603]

Brilliant

[@kencomonong9782]

THANK YOU SO MUCH!

[@SyrNarcissus]

could you do a tutorial on how to make a logo with rips through the logo? I'm having trouble making that kind of logo using gimp on linxus and using a png image.

[@clairelowagie4397]

Hi ! To those who know completely how to use Inkscape, how long do you think it takes to master it ?

[@luqmanmounir4007]

HI NICK, I WOULD LIKE YOU TO MAKE A VIDEO ON DESIGNING A BUSINESS CARD

[@chanellie86]

Pleeeeeeeeeeeeeeease do a tutorial on how to create a see through glass texture. I need a glass texture for a product I'm currently working on.
