Started with GIMP 2 months ago at age 70. Your approach to teaching is quite intuitive and I appreciate that you do not go off on tangents. Looking forward to enrolling in your training series. Thanks for offering all these and sharing your expertise.

@justtestingpleaseignore6707 3 года назад

I've been using GIMP for YEARS and just learned a million new things! Thank you so much.

@embeddedbastler6406 4 года назад

Gimp is extremely underrated in it's capabilities. Many people don't even know why they are paying for Photoshop. They are just using it because everyone does. (My past self included)

@Hyper5nic 4 года назад

Gimp, and anything other than Adobe software isn't even taken serious by advertising companies, go figure. ;-) The offset and digital printers are so accustomed to using the Adobe format that some even don't consider printing if it is not Adobe. So there's the bottleneck issue. I believe if Adobe has to release the exportformat, competition is fair again.

@softwarelivre2389 3 года назад

Its lack of user friendliness is the main reason for its low adoption.

@michaelkeymont501 3 года назад

Adobe is the ProTools of graphics software. Everybody uses it because everybody uses it and it keeps getting worse and worse until one day, it will no longer be used at all. I was a paying, professional customer since PS version 6 all the way through to Creative Cloud. It’s overpriced, bloated, resource hungry nonsense.

@softwarelivre2389 3 года назад

I use mainly paintdotnet on windows and Krita on Linux-based systems. I do not like either GIMP or Photoshop.

@mara257 3 года назад

it's expensive and people who are broke like me (aka Students) can't have it !

Coming back to GIMP after a couple of years, great refresher video

@HamzaFaisalO_O 4 года назад

Just wanna thankyou for existing man. I really appreciate everything you do for us ❤

@user-tm3fz7qx3s 4 года назад

GIMP can do a lot of stuff. I bet there are many features to add in, but GIMP is now very capable now. You're contributing so much to GIMP with these tutorials and explanations. Keep it up and I hope the best comes your way.

@carlellis9647 5 месяцев назад

This is a terrific video. I started using Gimp in September 2023. Learning all the tools and features has been a struggle. But I feel like I've taken a leap since I watched this video. Now things in Gimp make a lot more sense and I see how can use these tools to help create better images. Thanks Nick for doing such a terrific job.

@mr.matt.eastwood 3 года назад

Your videos are pure gold. Thanks so much!! I've been using Gimp for many years but this video widened my horizons to what I can actually do with it.

@cindymudaly3541 3 года назад

Thank you Nick for all GIMP n Inkscape videos tutorials. I have learned a lot in the last few weeks.

@pushpaverma9646 2 года назад

Wow!! Excellant eye opener for me toward edting photos. No body , on one explained like you did. God Bless . Thank You.

@marlowegargaran 4 года назад

I highly appreciate your videos Nick. I don't use gimp nor inkscape, but I watch your tutorials frequently as a means of freeing myself from thinking that my tools limit my creative process. Cheers all the way from the Philippines!

@wantafastz28 4 года назад

Nick, your videos are perfect! Thanks for your time making these.

@spearsharp8682 4 года назад

3:34 You can also increase and decrease the fuzzy selection threshold by sliding the mouse right (+) or left (-)

@thingsiplay 4 года назад

Hi Nick. Great video again and thank you. I know and understand most of the tools of GIMP, but where I still struggle is the perspective clone tool.

@TechieSewing 4 года назад

Loving Unified Transform recently. I shift around arrows for my thumbnails often and it's far easier to turn, scale and rotate in one take. After this video I'm going to look at perspective tools more often :) Thank you!

@wispsprojects1120 3 года назад

I was always curious about Gimp but it was so owerhelming with all the tools and functions and the official guide didn't helped much, but with this video it seems much more digestable. Thank you!

@yashsadani4680 4 года назад

Your text effect tutorial really helped me a lot as a beginner. Cant wait for the next tutorial. Cheers mate👍

@usemybox Год назад

Very clearly explained. Thank you for this video 👍

@tysondouglasrand5613 2 года назад

I've watched this three or more times now. I'm learning - slowly - but the hard part is now becoming how to know which tool to use and how to get the platform to release a tool when I'm done with it. GIMP is nearly too many options for me - but I WILL NOT Give up! Thanks.

@pbm___000 4 года назад

Incredible video! Thanks for indexing it so I can can go revisit a tool quickly, too!

@cristianfernandez9708 4 года назад

Thanks man, you don't know how much your videos help

@Nicholash69 4 года назад

These tool explanation videos are so good and helpful. Cheers.

@richardslater677 10 месяцев назад

That was truly useful in deciding that Gimp is not what I want. Gimp is described as an alternative to Lightroom by many sources and clearly it is not. Saved me a lot of time.

@willieb5227 Год назад

This sick thanks bro it’s crazy what you can do in gimp I wrote them all down and defined them I got work to do 🤦‍♂️

@StrangeIndeed 3 года назад

I love your videos, and I've learned a lot from you over the years. Thank you c:

@mrjape71 4 года назад

Excellent and very informative video, Nick! Wish I would have seen this before I started to learn how to use GIMP. Keep on rockin', Jarkko / MyVinylBar

@bulldogmicro4279 2 года назад

Actually the best video I found so far!

@aditkoel 4 года назад

@salmawaleed1976 4 года назад

Thank you very much I really need that video to differentiate between tools😊 Also I started to design logos and designing pictures and effect because of your videos and I was searching for videos to learn me designing and graphics for a long time😁 Thanks for the second time😁😄

Thank you, this video was very helpful and I love your videos. For this one it would have been additionally helpful though to illuminate the symbol for each tool right before you explain it.

@saiajaygarine6382 3 года назад

Nick, you are incredible!

@agoniavr 4 года назад

Watched the similar Inkscape video and wished you'd make one for Gimp...and here it is! Even if I'm perfectly fine with Windows and the Affinity suite, I often force myself to learn a new environment and software to avoid becoming a slave of the software's tools rather than using it as I want. I'm currently trying everything Linux with PopOS and despite finding Inkscape really good, a lot of stuff in GIMP doesn't make any sense to me. This video clarified a lot but having used a bit of different graphic software I still think GIMP is kinda clunky/unintuitive...hope they make it more similar to Photoshop/Affinity Photo as Inkscape is more similar to Illustrator/Affinity Designer.

@guilhermearaujoazevedo6148 4 года назад

Nick, could you please enable closed captions for the community to translate into other languages?

@skeeterburke 3 года назад

puedes copiar y pegar en Google Translate, el traduccion 1 > Click the 3 dots to the right of the word "Save" underneath the video 2 > Click "Open Transcript" 👉The transcript will have its own 3 dots. Toggle the timestamps to make it easier to copy and paste into a translator. This way, the translator does not get confused You'll notice that if you copy and paste the transcript into Word, it does not take up the whole width of the page. So you need to delete those hard line breaks one by one, or record a macro that will do it for you I got super nerdy on transcripts. I made a macro in Word to delete the hard line breaks and replace them all with spaces. If I want to print a transcript, it can now fit in a much smaller space to save paper. 🧡 i'd be glad to record my screen and post it to my channel if anyone is interested 💥DISCLAIMER 💥 some videos do not have a transcript included. In that case, there are some extra steps to record the audio and create your own transcript

If you got confused about the alignment tool like I did, Nick has another video showing an easier way to display these called, "How To Show All Tools in Gimp": - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-QfO-8Nou3Qk.html and I watched that first before I could fully understand this tutorial. I hope this helps some other beginners out there! I am really enjoying it!

@caradiri1762 2 года назад

@ParanoidFactoid 3 года назад

Hey Nick. I'd like to ask you to consider making a video about matching Ps by combining GIMP, Krita, and OpenToonz. That is, use GIMP tools that are unavailable on Krita, such as the Clone-Stamp tool, or text along a path, etc. Save objects as PNGs with transparent background. Move objects to Krita for final composite, where the layers panel allows for multi-select by ctl-click, non-destructive layer styles and effects, as well as non-destructive adjustment layers. Finally, for the Ps/Ae puppet tool, OpenToonz has the Plastic Tool, which is the best mesh deformation tool on Linux short of Blender (where you'd have to import image on a plane, add a mesh, and then a mesh deformation modifier - which is a lot to do for a simple mesh deform). I think a lot of people could use this kind of approach. shrug. Just a suggestion.
