I tried it out and it's good too. I didn't find it to be vastly greater than Vectorizer.ai, but similar and with a few more controls - a very nice alternative for sure!
For best image tracing in Illustrator first you need to count the number of color our image have. And select the same number of color to see the amazing results.
Holy shit its Wade, I was looking for a tutorial on how to turn midjourney stuff into Vectors and i wound up finding the guy that used to teach me BJJ and Muay Thai 10 years ago, sup dude!
Wow! I got really impressed from your video. Actually it is a rare thing to find this kind of video in UA-cam, about vectorizing Ai graphics artworks. Actually I watched only 2 videos referring to two websites that they generate "very simple vectors" from text prompts. They are at their beginning of this and there is a great potential in the future... Anyway, I would suggest you to always Upscale your image to a higher and sharper resolution, and after convert it to vector.... Thank you for sharing this useful information, combining it with the latest Ai technology. Do you have any video demonstration on how and where which sites can we upload and sell our ai vector designs?
Hey mate, thank you! I never considered upscaling first, that's a great idea to get better conversion! I haven't yet, but I am chipping away in the background on covering some of that, so in teh future I have one coming :)
I might be wrong, so you should probably read it yourself. But I was reading the vectorize user agreement. And according to their website, it says once you use her website and upload an image. Vectorize has the right to sell or use any material processed through their website For any purposes they want without your consent. I would love to use their service I would even pay it is stated in their user agreement that they would not steal my artwork. But this is not the case as far as I can tell.
I did read this on their home page: Do you make any claims on the input images or vectorized results? Our terms of service just grant us the rights we need to deliver the service to you, and to improve our products. We don't claim any rights to the vectorized results, and we won't share your images with third parties unless you explicitly authorize us to do so.
However, i do greatly appreciate you highlighting any potential issues using the tool though, i sure dont want to be recommending a tool which has some shady practices. Thanks for letting us know mate :)
Sorry if I am being picky but you are not using Midjourney to convert your image into a vector, which appears to be what your headline states. But them I am an old git lol
Hello wade. I vectorised some AI designs and put them on canva to add some text etc. when I download them from canva, the dpi is very low. Would I then have to up the dpi or leave as is because I’ve vectorised it.
Unfortunately canva converts vectors to bitmaps when exporting a PDF. The best result I would say is to use a bigger document in canva (it will still be a bitmap) or possibly try another app or program to see if it keeps it as a vector
Very nice! I was wondering if you could give me a clue on what prompt you used to generate the very first image you show in the video. I was trying to make something similar but I just cant figure out what art style is it. Thanks for the video!
Just found your channel as I was trying to get an image to make a url prompt for MJ. Yours was the ONLY video that did the steps to explain it correctly and it worked!! Just watched this one as I use vectorizer for MJ images- but the vector has these tiny white outline around each vector piece- (and no stroke). Have you or anyone seen this and suggest a remedy? I did not see these spider white lines around your vectors...
I have had that issue before where obje ts meet up but thered a thin gap, if you have illustrator, you can offset the paths, tbis video may help: ua-cam.com/video/H0NCuK1S34E/v-deo.html
I have the same thin white outlines and looking for a solution. I´m working with affinity designer and my solution is to choose all the same fill colors and fill out the strokes with the same fill color. Then I increase the contour lines to 2 px. Then I do this with the next color. That´s very time-consuming.
@@WadeMcMaster Okay, I understand but after I download the file I use inkscape to remove the background then I soon in I can see the stroke right around all of the design. When I placed it in adobe illustrator same thing. I am wondering if the settings in vectorize ai is the problem but I changed them up got the same result.
@@WadeMcMaster Well, I tried releasing the compound path and some of the lines have disappeared but I have some that have not changed. Still trying to figure out how to fix it and I will be good from there on.
You can use it in as part of digital art or design, sell prints on POD, Etsy, etc, or sell on Shutterstock, Adobe Stock etc, pretty much any image based service, you can work it in with
In vectorizer.ai there's the hourglass at the top - in Illustrator I didn't - I edited the video so that I could showcase them side by side after I filmed it.
You could but it then wouldn't be vector, but would be easier to import into standard programs. For print, a PDF would probably be best, for web and SVG and for vector editing an AI / EPS for illustrator
Any image you upload can be converted, Midjourney or not - however, the image shoudl be flat colors and vector-like to get good results. Hope that helps!
I know when considering screen printing of shirts vector images are useful because you are able to scale the image to any size without losing quality, also it makes color separations simple and easy.
You can upload photos of people but the results won' be as good, photos convert poorly. I would recommend using the photo in Midjourney or something to create an AI version there first that is cartoony and 2d before trying this.
@@WadeMcMaster Thanks. I love hand coding svg and squeeze every byte out of them. I think that is what tracers need to be judged on as well. It's no good to have a good image but ending up with a 3Mb file for what's essentially clip art. 100kb would be my aim for the rocket dog.
@@critical_always I hear what you're saying for sure. In many instances it is useful - but if you're just looking for a vector thats good enough to print (for yourself on a shirt, flyer or sign etc, not for sale) then the size isn't as big of a factor. On the web though, 100%, those files would be far too big.
It's sad that ai has taken all value out of vectors and clipart. No one will be making money from this anymore. Since december every one is now a "designer"....but when you make your prompt, you can add "flat" and "--no gradient"
Vectorizer.ai doesnt have any real settings you can change, but asking midjourney for flat colors, vector art, simple etc helps get an image that produces better results. What version of illustrator are you using?
@@WadeMcMaster i dont have problem with illustrator , i have problem to find out in tthe setting the right option to export the file in the right way , and yeah you can changge a lot f think .... maybe you need tto look again for the thinks that you recommend
I am a retired newspaper cartoonist and have seen many changes. The vector art is especially interesting. Thank you Wade😊
Thank you Calvin! Its moving insanely fast, interesting times. :)
I use Vector Magic - in my opinion the best and simplest. Fast, easy to use, you can choose the number of colors, correct the drawing, etc.

This will work only if our image have no gradient colors
Awesome tip mate thank you! Gradients don't really convert too well automatically do they. That's awesome info :)
I get pretty good results importing images into GIMP to clean up then converting the images into vectors using Inkscape. Both applications are free.
Nice, good to know. Thank you!
I'm amazed about the quality of the pictures. Thank u for the tip
Happy to help! Thank you :)

very inspiring video that i tried and uploaded in my channel
Glad I could inspire you mate!
Can you revese? Vector to image? Like, you have just black vector and you want to convert it to nice colorized image
Not sure, thatd be cool tho! I think firefly has a vector recolor tool but i dont think it does that specifically.
Love this man, catching this a little late but will be watching this tmr and making notes. Thnaks for making this

Yeah they recently went paid. I'll see what I can find but nothibf yet.
Very useful tool, this is exactly what I was looking for, thank you.

How did you removed the black background of the vector
In illustrator i just u grouped the graphic then clicked the background object and hit delete.
You are a Lord ! Thank you ! Take care.
why I can't remove the background like u did, can u help me :(
Is this in illustrator? You may need to ungroup it or the background could be various objects and yoummight need to delete a few.

Was hoping Vectorizer would stay a secret for a little while longer, looks like we might be paying soon : ) Wonder how their pricing model will be.
Yeah, hopefully its reasonable. Its an excellent tool, as a graphic designer i think itd be worth considering
Can you share the Midjourney prompt for the 3d glitch effect image? Or was it generated by some other way?
Thanks for the tutorial!
It was a simple one! "Abstract glitch art" in v4

What is your opinion on processing images for colouring pages? Is it better to apply VECTOR ART in this case?
Thats a tough question. Technically vector would be best, but i would upscale in topaz gigapixel and compare also. Whichever is beat use that.

I haven't heard of him, that's cool, I just checked out some of art now. Cool stuff.

If you get results you like that convert well, absolutely. I dont see why you wouldnt be able to use it for this.
thank u so much man , saved alot of time. ❤❤❤❤
Glad i could help! Thank you :)
very good tool man! thank you!

cool stuff
When you have a better quality picture (mitjouney -v and 4k or 8k resulution) I think the quality will be a lot better

how to make a vector neomorphism, not a raster one?
