For graphic design - I've learned technical things from school, more creative things from videos, quality from work, and efficiency from myself. A little of everything from everything too. Kinda cool now that you make me think about it.
Your are one of the best teachers in the Illustration and Design world to me. Thank you for all your great work. I nearly inhale all of your videos, starting out Inkscape and Gimp and now kind of professional as I study graphic design, Adobe lessons of you. Wow. Really. You are great and your explanations are perfect for studying.
Some extra tips: To drag the canvas around, use the *_SCROLL WHEEL BUTTON_* For Pen, press *_P_* For Ellipse, press *_L_* For a quick, manual selection Pathfinder, press *_SHIFT+M_* (you must already have your shapes pre-selected with Shift+click) For the Curve tool, to manually create curves from straight lines, press *_SHIFT+C_* To mirror+rotate+changing the center point of shapes, press *_O_*
thanks for this! I've written down my notes for easy reference image trace feature window > img trace select logo check preview in dialog box mode > black and white or color(takes longer) uncheck preview when done click trace button when happy object > expand > ok object > ungroup - do this twice delete the white stuff
I’ve struggled to get my head around imaging tracing correctly or how I want it to trace in my head, and within 5mins watching your video I’ve finally cracked it! Thanks for straight forward easily explained video!
I think this is a the best tutorial that I found for tracing Images and have a basic knowelage, all is explained and that a good strat for some one who tries Illustrator first time
Thank you for your help, this days it's difficult to come by people like you, i want you to know that my heart will never stop appreciating your generosity..
normally i dont give reviews but maam youre amazing like i tried 2 videos on 2020 and one on 2022 but it wont work but i saw yr video today and it worked as being both content creators i respect your hard work and keep it up
This has just saved me from insanity, why Trace wasn't working I've just realized the Pixel Preview (View) was checked, for last couple of days! 😳 Now everything is sharp 😊 Tip; The curvature tool: you can drag around the anchor points with same tool, really good
uhm, how do I express my gratefulness... uh... maybe this will put it on point: I LOVE YOU!? ♥ Your voice is super nice and soothing, the way you explain things is absolutely easy to understand and what can I say? I AM IN LOVE!! Big THANK YOU to you, Sir.
Thank you, you have no idea how unintuitive it is to be able to get an auto trace to not be a filled polygon because of the expand button. I really appreciate this video!
Your instructions were brilliantly simple to follow. Worked on the first try (which isn't always the case with youtube instructors 😅). Thank you for sharing your skills.
In this particular case you could just trace a straight line on the middle of logo. Making only one side, then reflecting it on vertical and creating the another side. It's twice faster.
You are wonderful! I've been trying to figure out how to turn a logo I created on Canva into a Vector for months now. Thank you so so much for this video! You absolutely just made my year!
A 2nd shortcut for this logo is to notice the symmetry in the left & right hemispheres. This would cut the tracing time in half. Copy. Transform/Reflect. Position/Join. Also, this would insure consistancy.
Thank you so much this video was SUPER helpful! I had asked a coworker to send a logo for merchandise and they sent a super low resolution jpg. This makes my life 1000 times easier
This was absolutely brilliant, but it got to the end and I know nothing about illustrator, so now I need to figure out how to resize the canvas to be the same size as the image was originally, and how to save it and alls sorts 😅
I'm getting the Academy after watching this video. This video actually made a whole lot of sense and I was actually able to see myself move forward as compared to other videos that just had me scratching my head wondering what to to next even after seeing them explain it. So this is a no brainer for me. Love the simplicity. Thank you for this awesome tutorial. Looking forward to join your academy.
Thank you so much for this video! I was able to learn something new within 4 mins of this video! Ive been making "vector" files the wrong way for so long till I landed on this video! Thanks Nick!
This has taught me more than what my professor in college is teaching me right now, I highly appreciate this!

I need to do this every 90 days or so and I re-watch this tutorial. At some point it'll sink in but until then, I'll keep watching!

Can you tell me how to scale
How to make a selection from a pentools shape?
thanks for this! I've written down my notes for easy reference
image trace feature
window > img trace
select logo
check preview in dialog box
mode > black and white or color(takes longer)
uncheck preview when done
click trace button when happy
object > expand > ok
object > ungroup - do this twice
delete the white stuff
GREAT THUMBNAIL. Just perfectly illustrative, yet clever.
Probably one of the most useful videos in my design career. I cannot thank you enough

Not to overstate things but you just changed my life

Thank you so much to specify every command you do at the video. Awesome job!
In this particular case you could just trace a straight line on the middle of logo.
Making only one side, then reflecting it on vertical and creating the another side.
It's twice faster.
The starbucks logo istn't perfectiy symmetrical though. I would however, provide a great base to adjust and probably make it faster either way
As a newbie kindly asked:
How to so?
Getting a line in the middle and make a "copy" to the other side?
Straighten and to the point. Thanks, that helped a lot.
This was excellent! You helped me finish a project for work. Many thanks!

Yes, trace one side, copy, paste and flip horizontal
it didnt look perfectly symmetrical to me
Yes, her eyes are not the same, and the shadow on her nose
