I messed up the settings during the tiling step and somehow ended up creating a golfball. Not the intention but still pretty cool. *UPDATE:* So for anyone else who runs into the same issue, the problem for me was in the "Apply the value to the clones" section. Specifically, it was the "color" option that gave me the golfball effect. For whatever reason, I had to select "size" and "opacity" to get the desired effect, rather than "size" and "color" as instructed in the video. Noting for reference in case anyone is smarter than me and knows why the discrepency: I'm on an M1 mac working with Inkscape 1.2.1. I believe I have all default settings enabled -- I just started using the program yesterday, I don't think I've touched any configuration that would affect this.
I was stuck on the tile clone part of this (like some). After a week of poking around and trying everything, I finally thought about resetting the app (Preferences/System/Reset Preferences) - restarted the app, tried it - and it worked exactly as described in the tutorial. Thanks for the fun tutorial.
Man big compliment to you channel. I started to learn graphic stuff with gimp and after 2 Months i found your channel. You enhanced my skills in only 1 week extremly, soon i will make a honor video for all those great tutorial channels, who helped me to start my own youtube channel, and you mate will get a real big section :D
hi nick, i learned so much from your videos the past years and it's becaus of you i use inkscape today. thank you so much for your effort. keep going on. some shabby locking stuff would be nice.
Thank you 🙏. Trust me all your videos are very inspiring, because it has motivated me back to my love which is graphics and design. Keep up the good work
Hey Nick, do you have any videos of how you edit and apply the logo afterwards? For example, in the thumbnail of this video it looks like the logo is on a business card. It would be a good tool in order to showcase work to businesses in the same way they would apply it.
Loving your content! Great videos. I particularly like this one. When I get some time my channels are going to get new logo and imagery courtesy of your inspiring and easy to follow videos! Watch this space! Hahaha.... Really appreciate you putting this stuff out there free for us to learn. Keep up the good work. Thanks again
Hi Nick, I'm only 2 days unguided into inkscape and I have found the blessing that is your channel. Reason I'm sending a comment is I can't seem to find the custom tab. I only just downloaded it if that helps.
Wonderful tutorial. I dont use Inkscape but after seeing this tutorial it seems that I will have to as I could not find this halftoning effect creation option in Coreldraw 2017 suite!!
What I did not understand was how did Inkscape know on what reference it was going to clone the circle? That is how did it know that it had to clone it on the blurred circle? Maybe I will find it out by myself with time...
It's based on the width and height specified in the settings of the tiled clones menu. It uses the X and Y axis of the document. I set it to 400x400 pixels, then it traced everything within a 400x400 area starting from top left to bottom right.
Also got blurred clones. Everything under settings was identical to the tutorial. Drove me nuts. Then I tried unchecking the "Color" under point 3. "Apply the value to the clones' " and just used size it worked. Hope it help you too.
Hi there Nick! First of all, I would like to say THANK YOU for all the tutorial videos that you put on RUclips. They are really helpful. I just started learning actually, so I'm trying to pick up as much as I can. But I have a request for you.. Would you be so kind (maybe also make a tutorial out of it) and make a 3D bow tie design, because I would like to take my learning a bit further and translate it to a CAM, for the reason of ''test'' machining? Thank you soo much and have a great day!
I've learned a ton from watching your vids, thanks Nick. One question, why did you duplicate the first set of letters instead of just giving them a stroke width?
I think that he did that to make like a shadow effect, just giving them a stroke would produce a stroke that is symetrical, while duplicating makes the shadow assymetrical and more like a real shadow i think
Thanks a lot Nick : the theme of this logo is just perfect, as usual. Just a small request : can you add a software that indicate during your tutorial the keyboard that you press in live, please ?
How do you create this comic effect to color in a character? Old school comic style painting! Thank you for these tutorials by the way. I am a physically disabled artist and have found your tutorials extremely helpful in adapting my artwork. Thank you so much!
just started using inkscape thanks to you Nick. Might seem like a dumb question, but once I download the font, how do I get it into Inkscape? Is it just a simple close and restart and the font is there? Thanks for the tutorials!
Thanks for sharing - I’d been looking for a good way to do halftone in Inkscape. Did you know the text border effect can be done without the extra copy? The paint order under the stroke options has one where the fill covers the stroke so you don’t end up with stroke intruding over the fill.
Thanks, Nick. Really enjoy your videos and appreciate the work you put into creating them. I know you use both Inkscape and Illustrator and I know you can create things in both programs and get the same results. I am curious Inkscape vs illustrator it seems that there are more steps in Inkscape to create the same effect in illustrator, but I could be wrong. I was just wondering your thoughts since you use them both. Thanks
I've found Illustrator to be quicker when it comes to things like transforming text and 3D, but overall the two applications are very similar and require just as much time to create things, especially when it comes to basic pure shapes like you would use for logo design.
More information about your computer please -- i7 6700 processor in what?-- with what graphics card? I'd like to know what computer/iPad to get, please? My old laptop is too slow and brainless to do anything. I'm also interested in doing animation. Any advice will be much appreciated!! Loved learning how to create a halftone pattern and altering it-- great tutorial from a great teacher.-- Many thanks--🌟
Thanks so much for the video. do we need to make Object to Path every time ? I thought "object to path" is only needed when you want to alter each node individually. Not sure if I am correct?
Why is the White square used? and how did inkscape know to create the clones in the circular pattern? I was wondering what setting made the clone exactly like the blurred circle
Hi Nick! I have a question about Inkscape... why it *never* saves my Dockables positions? It kinda bugs me that everytime I open a new file or create one, I have to reorganize my dockables 😒
Please make a tutorial for making a business card for a civil engineer in inkscape....... love your videos .. you are the best...can I get the heart...
Your tutorials are really good. Could you GIMPify this video please? That'd be terrificous. Inkscape is no longer compatible with MAC OS. Just tried downloading 0.92.2 and 0.91.1...no dice.
Hello, Nick, I loved this tutorial just like every single one of others. I have just a technical question here to better understand this tutorial and this cloning technique. I am having a little difficulty understanding the reason behind why you created that white square behind that blurred circle and can you please explain in your words how did this small circle changed into this pattern? Thanks as always. @Logos By Nick
I also wondered. My assumption is that it's used to place the first tile at the right location, at the top left angle, while the rectangle is centered along with the cercle. It might grant that the tiles are well centered and symmetric.
Buenas noches, veo sus vídeos, he tratado de hacer el efecto de los puntos que están detrás del logo y no me sale, probé con inkscape 1.0.2 y con inkscape 1.1 y con ninguna de las dos versiones me salió, que me puede decir, gracias.
What was the reason for having a black font under the green one before adding the stroke and shadow), I was expecting you wanted to scale it down to be organic borders
Great tutorial as usual Nick. When I clone my little circle, and hit Create Tiled Clones, all it does is create 3 other tiny ciclres next to the one I'm cloning.. I can't figure out what I'm missing/dong wrong..???
Can this work on gimp too? The dot pattern seems a slight complicated to me but I love the look. I like making logos, is Inkscape much better for this. I’m used to using gimp 2.8 but going to another program like Inkscape I have to learn another program.😩
You could explain a little more WHY do certain things e. g. what do we need the white square for? Cause otherwise I will never be able to any own designs..
Nick, you are surely one of the reasons why people are able to use inkscape.
Yes veri
yes very true
couldn't agree more
congratulations for reaching 100 likes. hahahahahaha
@@ChristUniverse thank you! what do you use inkscape for

I got "chain mail". But thanks for the fix.
Thank you! I also got the golf ball and was very confused 😂
great tutotrial. im shocked im still learning new things about inkscape: paste to size, create tiled clones, alt select.
I've learned so much about Inkscape from you, it's good to see you back with another tutorial.

After a week of poking around and trying everything, I finally thought about resetting the app (Preferences/System/Reset Preferences) - restarted the app, tried it - and it worked exactly as described in the tutorial.

I am constantly amazed by how powerful Inkscape is. The learning curve is pretty steep, but it’s incredible.

This tutorial is now one of my new faves! Thanks so much for what you do! You're by far my favorite teacher!
WOW ,,, I ABSOLUTELY LUV LUV LOVE your videos ,, thanks I can now maneuver inkscape a bit better , the more I watch the better I get . 😍
Wow, I am amazed that this guy knows his stuff. What a tutorial! You're the best, man!
Sweet! Thank you for sharing!
Much appreciate your work, Sir! Best teaching content I ever encountered on the web. Thanks o lot!
Love your Inkscape logo tutorials!
Most useful RUclips content here, thank you.
very helpful, detailed, well-paced. oh god, thank you very much!
Very cool!
I also liked the colors, very contrasting!

If possible I would give your videos more than one thumb up. Thank you very much for sharing your knowledge.

You are a great tutor Nick. Thanks for the great and super fun tutorials.
excellent video tutorial
inkscape is a very professional software
and with a teacher like Nick the potecial to create designs is infinite
Really Great job! I haven’t used Inkscape in years. This really helped.
Thank you so much, this is super helpful since I'm just starting out!
Thanks, Nick! Keep up the good work!
Awesome tip, thank you!
Great job Nick. Your tutorials are setting me up for a great year!
Thanks for all of your videos. Because of your videos, I've learned a lot 😊

Great one Nick, thank you!
Thank you very much.
I like it so much, great tutorial. thanks!!!
Amazing tricks and tools. Thank You. :D
I Love your Channel, Nick! Great Job!
Nicely done. The blocky 3D outline is technically a dropshadow ;-)
Thanks for the tutorial 👍👍 you’re so helpful
that was fun!
Another great tutorial! Thank you! :)

Wow, awesome! Thumbs UP!
Thanks a lot Nick : the theme of this logo is just perfect, as usual. Just a small request : can you add a software that indicate during your tutorial the keyboard that you press in live, please ?
Thank you very much Maestro!
However, you forgot aligning the black star in the middle of the dots? It is not centered :p
Great tut once again, but: what to do with the little circle in the top left? Delete it?
very nice!!!
Hi, Nick! Could u show me the patterns and customs which u use in yo Inkscape? Thanx in advance.
How do you create this comic effect to color in a character? Old school comic style painting! Thank you for these tutorials by the way. I am a physically disabled artist and have found your tutorials extremely helpful in adapting my artwork. Thank you so much!
But what about the texture paper you show on thumbnail for this video? How did you do that?
just started using inkscape thanks to you Nick. Might seem like a dumb question, but once I download the font, how do I get it into Inkscape? Is it just a simple close and restart and the font is there? Thanks for the tutorials!

Hello, this is the computer I'm currently using. It's a build from 2017: logosbynick.com/look-new-design-setup/
Nick, what do you do with the little dot/circle.. when your done. ?
Thanks so much for the video. do we need to make Object to Path every time ? I thought "object to path" is only needed when you want to alter each node individually. Not sure if I am correct?
thank you..
Hello, can we achieve same close trace effect in Illustrator? If yes then how?
Love your font tutorials. Never realized Inkscape is so much fun. What happens with the black dot? Does it stay on the design?
Why is the White square used? and how did inkscape know to create the clones in the circular pattern? I was wondering what setting made the clone exactly like the blurred circle
Hi Nick!
I have a question about Inkscape... why it *never* saves my Dockables positions?
It kinda bugs me that everytime I open a new file or create one, I have to reorganize my dockables 😒
hello, you can go to inkscape.org/report and search if such an issue exists. and if it doesn't, then create one to let the team know.
Dobrá práce ;-)
Please make a tutorial for making a business card for a civil engineer in inkscape....... love your videos .. you are the best...can I get the heart...
Check some older tutorials.
Ok...I will look upto them ...thnx
Nice!
Could you do a tutorial on how you did your thumbnail. 🙅♂️

Pop-art/comic book graphics are timeless. Move over Illustrator, make room for Inkscape.

8:12 There should really be a way to "group" nodes, so you just have to change one while the others adopt the setting. 😏
Can this work on gimp too? The dot pattern seems a slight complicated to me but I love the look. I like making logos, is Inkscape much better for this. I’m used to using gimp 2.8 but going to another program like Inkscape I have to learn another program.😩
WOW!
Hi for the blurred circle, will the same effect be achieved using a circle with radial gradient instead?
My circle icon isn't working properly. On using, it creates a semicircle. What should I do?
I still can't get the result of trace's step, always try but never get the result.
You could explain a little more WHY do certain things e. g. what do we need the white square for? Cause otherwise I will never be able to any own designs..
Why this cm- wallpaper effect (those dots) only works for white background ?
