Hey Nick! I am a self-taught freelance graphic designer and your videos are very helpful in my work. You are an inspiration for many people out there wanting to start graphic designing, for free but don't know how to. Inkscape is free to use and your tutorials are the best and your thumbnails are attractive. I would love if you make a video on how to design epic thumbnails like yours that grab attention. Thank you.
Used Inkscape for so long and doesn't know about a metric ton of stuff that you just told about. Your video and channel go straight to the bookmarks. Thanks a lot!
I've seen many of your videos. They are all fantastic! I purchased the Master Class and it was so full of info, I was like a little school girl learning in class all over again. Except you can watch it over and over and still see something you might have missed. I'm glad I purchased it. It has shown me so much that this software can do. Great job Nick! Thank you so much!
Wow!!! You did an amazing job explaining these tools! I think your style is one of the easiest to learn from in an efficient manner! Thank you, thank you, thank you!!
Blown away. Subscribed. I'll be getting video burn, scratchy eyes from watching all your tutorials. I have to find out if Inkscape has a grid utility, how difficult it will be to warp a 2D construct onto a sphere and utilize/incorporate (with mathematical precision) golden-section principles and fractals for design. (Generally, it seems the best logos, sigils and geometric forms, the ones that really "pop," are those which are "in tune" with themselves using golden-section techniques and simple fractals). Glad I found your channel!
WOW! What a great presentation: clear; succinct; covered every basic tool. Props, thumb up and subscribe... you aren't wasting anyone's time. Thank you!!!
Thank you so much for making this video. It is so useful and for some reason so soothing to watch but I almost got hypnotized from the Freehand Lines tool part lol.
You should make a dedicated YT channel for Affinity software tutorials, I know that's a crazy wish but you are the best at explaining and a lot of people are interested, just saying.
This was very worthwhile. I am mostly interested in generating vectors for CNC work but I am going to take this lesson for a walk. Definitely worth review in detail.
Thank you so much for making these tutorials! If it weren't for you, I'd still be using GIMP for everything instead of taking the plunge and learning Inkscape. Now, I have an awesome band logo that is a vector image. :D
I've already purchased your master class bundle a couple weeks ago, but tbh have been kinda overwhelmed at the thought of starting it. This video was a fantastic overview of what I'll be learning about, and has eased some of my fears in starting to learn Inkscape more in-depth. Couldn't have been better timing! Thank you for providing such fantastic resources to learn from ♥
Learning so much from you! After literal decades I've left Illustrator (got sick of Adobe's BS) and trying to get Inkscape down. For me its mostly speed and interface issues (mostly mine) but your videos are massively helpful! Will be looking into your classes!
hi Nick! this is a personal thank you for being everything a novice like myself could ask fo in the arena of instructional content! you and 1 other made the cut out of all other creators in graphic arts dree software that met the criteria to be best overall
I have learned so much from your videos! My only comment is that sometimes it's hard to see where your pointer is on the dark tool bars and by the time I find it, you've moved on.
@Logos By Nick Hi Nick, can you recommend a free program that has a vector freehand drawing tool that also has line stabilization so when I draw a curve it smooths out my shaky hand. I'm currently using Autodesk Sketchpad, but the drawing tools are all raster and ironically you can't zoom out because the viewport isn't filtered so drawing a higher resolution causing so much aliasing you can't judge your drawing. I'm currently inking my line drawing in there with because it has a nice stabilization setting for the pen tool and then converting that to vector in another program and losing quality on the way. Looking for something where I can draw at a higher resoulution while zoomed out and or draw directly to vector.
SOMEONE HELP ME!! i will appreciate haha, when i try to use any of the pens 🖊 it automatically creates a form/shape, not the actual line 😢 does anyone knows how to solve this?? 4:08
How can you move an object using reference points not on the object? For example, I want to move a circle by the distance between two corners of a square which is located away from the circle. I found that I can select the circle, press the Alt key, then move by clicking and dragging anyplace on the screen. However, snapping doesn't work on the corners of the square, but grid snapping does. Any idea how to get the snapping to work during this little move?
Thank you much- I have purchased your course because you explain the functions in Inkscape so well, and I need to learn how to use this tool. One question- if I were to use my designs on Inkscape to sell commercially using their fonts, would that be an issue? Or no, since it is open source?
_Questions about Fill Bounded Areas._ _Does the tool create an optimal fill shape with minimal nodes? Or does it act like the old Serif Draw fill, which produced choppy boundaries with excessive nodes?_ _Whereas your example consisted of three overlapping filled shapes, will the tool create a fill within fully-bounded regions comprised of arbitrary disjoint strokes which cross one another?_
It depends on the areas being filled. If the bounding objects are choppy and have a lot of nodes then so will the bucket fill object. If it's a simple shape then it'll be a simple fill. There's tool settings that you can use to adjust the threshold of the fill.
Help ! I lost the pointer (it is invisible on the work page) only sometimes, and I do not know how to recover it ! I see the pointer only outside the work page. Has anybody any idea ? thanks
Hi, Nick! I use Inkscape regularly for Logo designing. I had never required to copy an object 5 (five) time around a circle, before. But, today, I'm creating a logo with a "Circular Fan" with 5 blades. Well, we can easily copy objects by the duplicating-rotating trick. But, I found difficulty in getting that result with 5 (five) blades! My question is... How can we copy 5 (five) blades of a circular fan around the mid-circle, with the same distance between them? That would be nice if you make a tutorial video on this! I hope; this isn't the irrelevant place to ask THIS question. Thank you, Sunil Christian.
Would be good to explain the new tool I see in version 1.1. Geometry constructions. Can't get what that does at all. But looks very interesting to me! Thank you for the tip about creating an object from measuring tool! That was very useful!
Please do a video of how an object properties work or don't work (transfer? survive?) when using the OS clipboard to copy and paste between Inkscape and other programs like Affinity designer or Illustrator. I understand that a file can be saved or exported from Inkscape. I'm just very curious of how the clipboard handles these things! Thanks for this video!
Hi Nick. Enjoy your videos. Quick question for those with failing eyes. Is there any way to increase the size of all the info around the screen, from the icons to the info up top? Thanks.
Thank you for making these tutorials. They have really helped me
Logos by Nick is the best inkscape channel of youtube.
Been using Inkscape for 5 years now, and I STILL got to learn new stuff from this video. Amazing ❤️
You are the reason i am using inkscape over illustrator... U r awesome man
I usually spend 2 or 3 classes, with 2 hours each one, to talk about all of these... Incredible, man! Many thanks!

Oh man! The effort you put in to these things! Thank you, it's absolute gold. Enrolled just to support, your free content alone is worth it.
Used Inkscape for so long and doesn't know about a metric ton of stuff that you just told about. Your video and channel go straight to the bookmarks. Thanks a lot!
Thank you for making these tutorials, the quality and level of professionalism has me really invested in you as a content creator.
Brilliant tutorial and a MASSIVE SHOUTOUT to SQUARESPACE for sponsoring this video

This is a shortest and coolest crash couse I have ever seen on youtube. Very informative.
Great efforts!!!

Thank you Nick! These tutorials are awesome. I love your quick and concise style.
I still always find something new from your videos. Every day is a school day. Thanks again, Nick!
Thanks so much! I am a teacher in Brazil and your videos have helped me a lot.
Thank you so much for making this video. It is so useful and for some reason so soothing to watch but I almost got hypnotized from the Freehand Lines tool part lol.
This is a great overview of Inkscape. The program is totally new to me so this overview was very helpful. Thank you!

Very impressive 🤩 love from India. ❤️
When a video named "in 10 minutes" is actually within 10 minutes!
Come on now 9:16 🤣😂🤣😂
It is within 10mins. :-)
It would've been more funny if it was 10:01seconds
It's almost as if you created the program! Thank you for teaching us everything we need to know!
Just the spiral alone makes it a pick! It's hard to find a proper one in most other software. Nice video
Thank you so much for making these tutorials! If it weren't for you, I'd still be using GIMP for everything instead of taking the plunge and learning Inkscape. Now, I have an awesome band logo that is a vector image. :D
Nick, you are a legend! Thank you for your amazing tutorials! 🙏
Thank you very much, I love your concise and amazing quality tutorial. I'm getting in love with Inkscape ♥

Picked it up off Teach:able! Thanks!
Is Inkscape missing any features that Illustrator has? Wondering if you want to go back to Illustrator or if Inkscape is just as capable.
Wow so much value in 10 minutes 👍
As always, beautiful content, visual and voice. Thanks!
This channel has given wonderful videos on both GIMP and Inkscape ...
Thanks for all these videos ✨🙌
I literary want to learn this software and you just upload this video. Very amazing
hi Nick! this is a personal thank you for being everything a novice like myself could ask fo in the arena of instructional content! you and 1 other made the cut out of all other creators in graphic arts dree software that met the criteria to be best overall
Just what I was looking for thank you!!
To the point and at perfect pace.
Thanks Nick. So many functions that I hadn’t even noticed!
I have learned so much from your videos! My only comment is that sometimes it's hard to see where your pointer is on the dark tool bars and by the time I find it, you've moved on.
Your channel is very good, Nick. Keep up the good work. Thank you
❣️Thanks for the tutorials.
I would love to see tutorials on adding shading texture in inkscape.
Thanks again.❣️
awesome. short. straight to the point. no unnecessary frills. no endless droning.
I have some kind personal aggression towards the people who dislike useful videos like this :(
Thank you so much! I just found your videos, I am so happy!!!
I would've loved to have this video when I was begging to lear Inkscape. Great work!
Exactly what I needed
Thank you for the great videos. I am learning so much about this tool!
Thank you so much for this tutorial!
I hope you make similar tutorials for Gimp and Krita...
I'll probably do a tools overview for GIMP as well.
@@LogosByNick
Excellent!
Thank you so much again!
💯💯💯💯💯
I love your tutorials ❤️👏
Thanks Nick!
Appreciate you helpful videos very much!
Thanks again for good info that I will refer to
Thanks nick thats brilliant i'll check some other videos
Thank you so much! Super helpful and well made.
Thanks 👍 Mr Nick
Brilliant explanation. Tx
Absolutely excellent ......
Nice explanation.

wow.. some interesting tool features. Mpoving to inkscape from illustrator. Wish there was shape builder
_Questions about Fill Bounded Areas._
_Does the tool create an optimal fill shape with minimal nodes? Or does it act like the old Serif Draw fill, which produced choppy boundaries with excessive nodes?_

Thank you bro ❤
Great tutorial, Often wondered what couple of those icons did . Would it be possible to do a tutorial on some of many extensions added to inkscape?
This is so good!
Superb!!!
A very informative video, thank you for this.
Cant wait until the next tutorial
Thankyou Nick
Thank You my guy, Thank You :D
Hello, My pens and bucket fill has gone made, it's making weird shapes around the edges, How do I fix this🙈
Is the price listed for the master class levels monthly payments or one time. It does not say. Thanks.
Hey Nick thanks for the videos, my circle tools is drawing tubes 🤭 3D looking tubes ,,,, any idea how could i turn it back to normal
Thank you so much !! 🙏🙏
Nice video
How can I make the tabs and toolbars smaller(more narrow) they are kind of thick and take up workspace....? 🙂
That intro gets me every time
so helpful ty!
Help ! I lost the pointer (it is invisible on the work page) only sometimes, and I do not know how to recover it ! I see the pointer only outside the work page. Has anybody any idea ? thanks

Quick question, is there a way of making outlines of squares in Inkscape?
Please do a video of how an object properties work or don't work (transfer? survive?) when using the OS clipboard to copy and paste between Inkscape and other programs like Affinity designer or Illustrator. I understand that a file can be saved or exported from Inkscape. I'm just very curious of how the clipboard handles these things! Thanks for this video!
I have a IPad Air, will I have full service to all the tools if I download Inkscape to my tablet.
Excellent!!!! :D Thanks.
Thank you again!
Thanks a Lot!
¡Muchas gracias!
Hi Nick. Enjoy your videos. Quick question for those with failing eyes. Is there any way to increase the size of all the info around the screen, from the icons to the info up top? Thanks.
What is the software version number in this video?
nice video from 🇵🇭..do you have turorials to rearrange toolbars?
Nick, could you please enable closed captions for the community to translate into other languages?
there is a bug in the bezier tool which makes vector tracer interrupted
