Good job
Those keyboard button press sounds are so satisfying.
+Daniyal Azram I got a mechanical keyboard recently, love how it sounds and feels
I think I am going to buy one myself too.
I got my completely opposite opinion here
I'm happy to see that this channel is bringing out new GIMP content and may I say it has that same professional look and feel like all those big photoshop, after effects, etc,... video tutorials which is super refreshing. You've earned yourself a subscriber. Thank you for sharing your creativity with us!
If you want to learn more about how GIMP works, I have a 60+ part video series where I explain all of the tools and features in GIMP and demonstrate how they work. Here's the link if interested: logosbynick.com/gimp/
Hey Nick, in the bottom right corner the spacing is set to 0, instead of the default 20. You forgot to note that you have to set the spacing to 1 or the whole thing doesn't work.
Damn I forgot. Thanks for mentioning that. Pinning this comment.
you just saved my life
Hi Jimmy , after having seen your comment, I noticed that my spacing (espacement in french) was set to 20, and it works ! (sorry for my bad english )
Sorry Jimmy : you're right . It works, but with slight ripples !
THANK YOU SO MUCHHH!
hello thanks for this video you are the only one on youtube who knows how to use the gimp program professionally, I write this from the translator I'm from Argentina greetings
to be honest with guys, Nick is the mastermind Graphics in this era. Nick you are the best and thanks alot for the good work. you have all of my respect.
Thanks Norpy, quite the compliment.
Ive been binge watching your tutorials all day
That's really awesome bro, you have really a good list of videos Nick, regards from Colombia.
Been following your tutorials for a week or so now, and can't express how much they are appreciated! Keep 'em coming, bud. Side note: gonna be in Philly in a few weeks for the first time. Got any must-see, must-do recommendations? Thanks in advance! Would love to buy you a beer to thank you for all the help and advancement you have provided.
Awesome, I'd recommend checking out the Blue Cross RiverRink on the Delaware river, then walking down to Spruce Street Harbor Park (maybe a 5 minute walk if that.) Really nice this time of year.
The tip on aligning opposite bezier handles is a good one. Thanks
thats mega cool just few steps away and done. piece of cake
Nick, seriously thanks.
I've been looking for a way to manipulate a gradient along a curve in gimp.
This helps a TON.
I used to watch lettering posts and always thought it was really hard to do, thank you so much for giving such perfect breakdown of all the steps.
3:20 At that point, when I just let go, the line going through the circle remained. Eventually, I figured out that I also needed to hit [Enter]. Maybe that's because I'm using GIMP 2.10. Not sure.
i cant get my color to show up in this part
im a bit late lol, but check ur opacity
Wow! It works! The first time i tried it took forever to activate and when I disabled my antivirus it worked like in less than a minute! Thanks bro!
Hey Nick. I love your intro song. Thats the reason why Im messaging. Ive had this video open for three days and every now and then I just restart the intro to listen.
Anyways - good video. Straight and to the point and you dont fumble your words. Youre good.
One important error that can occur in this workflow: *dark lines along the path!*
If you are suffering dark pixels running along the draw-path, I just figured out why. The default pixel color is RGBA 0000, meaning by generating your gradient inside a circle-selection, you only color the inside solidly pink but on the pixels around the outside GIMP blends the gradient towards black while also phasing into transparency. When you select from alpha-channel it could leave dark streaks with those black-blended pixels.
To correct this, generate the gradient over the desired height of the final brush-cross section *on the whole layer* to color all adjacent pixels through with pink as well, then select an ellipse across the gradient for your brush, invert the selection [by default Ctrl+I] and erase the rest of the layer again [by default DEL]. Copy the brush to the clipboard again [by default Ctrl+C] and remember to reduce the distance in the Brush-Settings to 1. Finally redraw along the path without streaks.
Oh, and also if your gradient spreads from a limited selection to the whole layer the moment you deselect, it's because the gradient tool was updated. It now retains the positions of the coloring-anchors and allows the user to modify their position until the gradient command is applied with RETURN. If intermediately you eliminate the selection, the tool stays active and spreads the gradient across the whole layer. Not that it matters because as stated you're better off coloring the entire layer and erasing from an inverted selection to suppress streaks.
Love this! But I can't seem to get it to work with 2.10. Love to have you put up a video showing how to do this effect in GIMP 2.10!
off to see the new version, Thanks Nick!
At my school (french school) Were working on a lot of project, and we watch your videos in my classroom and I love them! :)
That intro beat slaps.
This is way more work than I hoped.
Bro that looks awsome !
You make GIMP look like a child's game, bro! TY!
hi nick, i have problem ,
my tracet is not continous, the tracet is not clear, it is composed of several circles, yet i check the box " smooth stroke", please help me
yes same with me
This is awesome! This is stunning effect! I like it! Thanks for bringing this tutorial on youtube!
Just found your channel, 3 videos and I've learnt so much! Easy to follow and well explained! Cheers man!
Wait... is that music I hear in the background? LOL.... That is new. ;P
Great job Nick! I plan on using this fr my mod changes for fonv for wall graffiti so thank you!
Yes, always trying to improve the quality of my videos
Personally... I dont think you need to improve them... I learn so much already.
Well other than you need to put out alot more....LOL! Like 5 a day more LOL! ;) ;P
Hey Nick great video - but once you got to the clipboard brush you can definitely try stroke selection on the letters to get a double 3D word
I have this issue where the brush has a dark edge, therefore the texture isnt connected. Spacing is set to 0. Help?
Thanks Nick for all you do!
Nice intro and your videos have helped me get started in Gimp. After 15 years of Corel suite, this is different and..free!
My apology re-watch the video and I saw some mistakes that I made so I redid it and now it looks awesome thank you a lot your videos are very helpful I saw two of your videos and done two projects, I can feel that I'm getting closer to become a graphic designer
thanks Nick! a great tutorial, a powerful brush/paths trick.
8:73 that felt so good when I saw the exact same results
um you need some creativity and not duplicate something.
I tried this with a red and pink for a logo saying retro gaming and it looks amazing so thanks man
after filling the circle with color i choose select none. then the color jumps to whole background
I followed the instructions but when I click stroke path, the paint appears but some of it has a grey pixel aura around and on the pink instead of looking smooth. Have I done something wrong or is there a way to fix it?
You really helped me a lot, thank you!
This really blew my mind. Thanks a lot for these amazing videos!!!
I have this issue where it skips instead of being a smooth stroke so I have these random black streaks at points. Would this have something to do with me having a low end laptop?
got the same problem… the brush always looks dirty..
@@dennisbaumann2708 same here, can't shake it. been trying a bunch of different tweaks. super annoying
I got to the part whenrethe ellipse is filled. When i clicked on "None" to deselect, the whole page got gradiented. What am i doing wrong?
Me as well. What up?
Is the Learning Curve font free for commercial use?
Hi Nick. Thanks for Tutorial. It's really helpful for me as a t-shirt art designer. Hopefully, you create more gimp tutorial about coloring object like multiple color of dropped ink. Thanks
thank you for this! You are so easy to understand and follow. keep it up!
Thanks, have followed step by step and it is an interesting tutorial.
To centre the text use the Alignment tool.
Great work! I love GIMP ! :)
That's neat
even after setting my spacing to 1, i still get a streak in the middle of the downstrokes
1. Select the circle.
2. Select Alpha to selection
3. Right click on it,chose select>shrink> 7.0px(As you wish) and click Ok
4. Then right click again>edit>copy.
Boom.The streak is gone.
@@dominicsylvesterpeters6200 thank you so much, it worked perfect!
@@dominicsylvesterpeters6200 Thank you!
@@dominicsylvesterpeters6200 You are a lifesaver! Thanks!
Now I feel inspired to mess about with custom brushes and the path tool a bit more!
And perhaps even Inkscape?
Thank you!
but no one asked
This design is awesome, thanks a lot!
Hi nick,
I wanna ask you, can't we do an "alpha to selection" to the text layer then we stroke the selection from "Edit"?
hope you answer, thanks
Instead of taking all that time messing with paths could you just select the text shrink and then stroke the selection?
Hi nice and easy guide you made, but when im comming to the point where you are going to stroke the path you made at 8.38 in your video, im getting like small dots instead of a clean line, why is that ?
It has something to do with gimps alpha channel feature it leaves 20.0 spacing around the object by default. I'm NEW to gimp as well the only work around I did was just make a addition circle inside the one you created and copy to visible and it should work
Cool effect. Thanks a lot!
Great tutorial!
Awesome just what i NEEDED man! THanks!
I really enjoy your video I tried doing the same exact logo and when I try to add color to it just as you did and this video it wouldn't go through so do I need to change because you got the 2.8 version but I got the 2.10 version do you have any advice to give me.
Good tutorial thanks Nick, love the videos. I could not figure out how to get rid of the ripple on the brush , so instead of using the gradient brush I just used a normal brush with black lol. Stroked to path and the letters looked good in plain black so went with it. Making these letters to use in Imovie , when I rotate the video in imovie unfortunately it does not rotate titles.
Hi, I do fine up to 9.38 in, just after the elipse fill. When I let go I still have the circle selected, and when I click 'select none', the gradient fills the whole image. Where am i going wrong pls? thanks.
very cool look
wow that was realy cool
Dear Nick, all your tutorials are excellent, easy to folllow and usefull. Thank you so much, I love you. ♥
Good job🎉
when i do this, mine is not that smooth even if i put smooth stoke quality and weight at max i keep seeing black edges in every stoke between point to point
I understand why I can not see any extra fonts after downloading Learning Curve... Be sure to read all the fine print BEFORE clicking the continue tab.
Awesome video! My clipboard has completely disappeared! Anyone know how to bring it back up so I can select the gradient paint brush?
New favorite channel!
Thanks for the tutorial, greetings from Argentina
Okay, I have downloaded Learning Curve 4.0. I do not see any new fonts... What do I do now?
Thanks man ⭐️
I've done everything but when i press Stroke nothing happens? i googled for an answer but there was nothing. i have followed the letters with the path.
when u downscaled the circle where u made the colore fade and created a smaller one, how did u make the bigger one disapper. cause i still have the outlines of the bigger cricle when im drawing. also its lagging like crazy when i try to draw. thx for answer! nice video!
thank you so much im so ready now!
This is really good man.
I get these black lines around my circle and they make it look awful when I use it as a brush. Any fix?
In Gimp 2.10 you need to set the brush "Force" setting to < 10. Helped for me...
@@Karkaroff83 man ive been trying to solve that for last 4 hours it works now that ive read your comment, thanks!
@@Karkaroff83 i'm inviting you to my wedding.
@@jako9833 lol i think that only makes it look like it isn't still there but is. i want it gone completely. like there is literally black and orange on the outside. eff
Can someone please explain how to get the font from the link??
Your work and tarining is fantastic.
Please tell us how to import vectors from inkscape like smart objects.
GIMP import paths but without color filling.
Really enjoying and learning from all your videos. Have you done something of reducing image sizes for websites with Gimp?
So cool! Thanks!
Hello Nick, can you also make a tutorial for this on Affinity..? Please.. Thanks!
Just getting into graphics, but I didn't see a comment on this, but is it possible to have the text automatically create the path? Nice tutorials btw! Thank you..
I really feel like if you can master gimp you can master anything
Hi Nick, I love your videos keep up the amazing work. Do you have a video on how you make your thumbnails?
if I would like to find a course to add texts like this to photos so I can make something similar to an album cover what should I search for on udemy . would that be considered graphic design?
Thank you so much, it helped me a lot.
hypothetical question: if this font was free for private use but required a commercial license to use commercially... would using what you created in this video commercially, be illegal?
thanks, nice video
I keep forgetting about custom brush that can be made with just simple gradient tool. By the way, can you make next tutorial how to create your own/custom gradients? I once tried it but i lost all default gradients. :( I had to delete and reinstall gimp to get them back.
IS POSSIBLE TO CREATE THE SAME EFFECT WITH A TEXT FILL WITH MOTIFS PLEASE?
For me this doesnt work, the smallest setting i have for spacing is one so the effect is not smooth, can see the outline of most circles, anyone found a fix for this
I have the same problem. Minimum spacing is 1 and drawing with the brush lefts a black outline.
When you're making the brush tip from that gradient circle, try shrinking the selection (through [Select]->[Shrink...]) by one pixel and then copy the selection again, that should solve your problem.
@@GeorgeNoiseless Thanks a million! You helped me out a lot there, very grateful.
@@GeorgeNoiseless Thank you!
Thanks
Can"t you just make a path from the text object? It should be possible. Not on my computer right now but I will try it later.
Nice video man, do you know how to take out the two sides because when I open gimp it don't show the part that show the tools and layers if you can help thank
I still get weird spacing even after setting spacing to 1. It looks close to the example but not quite right.. Any suggestions?
Hey man, nice tutorials! Why don't you use Krita? Anyways, now that you are making Gimp tuts I guess I should start learning it hahahah, but then I'll have yet another painting/image editing on my PC
Awesome tip!
Thank you so much for the video, Nick! I'm leraning so much already. I'd also love to know: What is the name of the song you used at the background?
you should do a tutorial of how to path cursive letters
