Love these videos! I had a friend who wanted me to make a logo for them so I downloaded inkscape and followed one of your tutorials and they loved it! Now through your channel I think GIMP has to be my next download and I'll try this for some profile pics. Your tutorials are so easy and thorough and even if you had never used the programs (Like i did) you can create something beautiful. Well done sir and keep up the good work
Hey Nick - just wanted to thank you for the excellent channel you have here. Your content is really helpful, well done and informative. If there is one negative feedback to give, it is that you don't post enough! 😊 Once again - great job and thank you!
Thank you. I would gladly post more often if RU-vid paid enough that I could do this full time. I enjoy creating content so much more than doing client work.
A very good video as always. However, I do similar things with Inkscape using clipping. I prefer this because I consider Inkscape’s Bezier tool more convenient to use than Gimp’s path tool. Plus, in Inkscape you can subsequently change details like the circle’s color, diameter or thickness or even the outline of the cut shape without much effort. After that--if needed--I would save a copy as "Gimp XCF maintaining layers" and apply filters or color changes in Gimp.
OMG NIck! I did something just last week very similar but by hand in my sketch boo , that is So cool... strange minds think alike! So funny and cool! Thank you nick for this least now I can try and do it in GIMP or try to (since I am still horrible in GIMP) but you help out so much! ~HUGS~ Thank you!
I’m not exactly sure what I’m doing wrong but I’m following your directions as I watch and when I get to the part where I use the elliptical and do the “grow” the “grow” is not highlighted to choose! Help! 😊
This would look so cool for LinkedIn, but does anyone know how to make it compatible? LinkedIn uses circle avatars as standard, so this would end up being a circle within a circle. I guess you'd have to match up the background perfectly, and since I'm watching GIMP tutorial videos you can guess I don't have the skills for that!
The tutorial was great, but at many places you did quite many word errors, like you said "you could just put a image in INSKAPE like I did in the thumbnail", it should be GIMP instead of INSKAPE 😅
Gimp sucks... there's so many steps to do a simple task. Why isn't there an option like "delete everything around the selection and make it transparent" instead of 10 steps to do it. And it just was an example, it has very many functions that gets me frustrated all the time because i have to take so many steps and failing to do simple things that even in powerpoint can be done with ease.
sergykid To delete something around a selection just make sure whatever you want is selected go to selection>invert selection>delete It has to have an alpha channel of course.
that on a small scale, imagine i want to make an image with like 6 scenes and all modified with some object etc, that would take 1-2 hours in Gimp. I did that in just 20 mins in something like powerpoint, where you just drag and drop, easy rotate and delete anything.
Your just salty because your bad at Gimp. Besides, if you don't like Gimp, then simply dont use Gimp. You don't have to share your negitive complaints in a wonderful youtuber's comment section.
