Nick, I'm a not a professional graphic designer nor a graduate of digital arts nor an expert, but as a person who is fond of digital editing as a hobby, your videos are really helpful. I don't even consider my self an average person in terms of editing but you are really helping me! Watching your videos is of the reasons why I'm still not upgrading to Adobe products. Gimp and Inkscape still! haha! GUYS, THIS GUY NICK IS LEGIT! hope you got more opportunities on this field! Cheers from The Philippines!
Thanks for your kind words, glad my videos have helped. If design is just a hobby or a casual interest then there's no need for the expensive Adobe software :)
This is just what I needed. Thanks for a clear and concise video. I learned in 5 minutes with you what I've been trying to teach myself (unsuccessfully) in a whole lot more time. THANKS!
Because of your video, I was able to create my first-ever rug mockup after struggling for a few days. Though very basic, I am happy to get a start today. Thanks mate.
Just made my first design on a shirt and I cant thank you enough!! Amazing tutorial, and i highly recommend you use the images in the description to practice of you dont already have an image of your own. Good Luck everyone.
who would dare dislike this video? probably a fool who uses a cracked version of photoshop anyway. It's always good to see experts like Nick who show that basic and advanced techniques can be achieved when using strictly open-source design software. Even running a design agency on open-source software. Great video as usual Nick.
:O I've been playing casually with GIMP for nigh 20 years, and that colored-layer-"mode"-"multiply" trick is something I've never seen before. I knew there were loads of menus I hadn't touched and capabilities I hadn't played with, but that one blows my mind and REALLY opens up options for me. I'm so glad I checked out this tutorial! Thank you for making this video! :)
I simply love the tutorial! It's so easy to do the mock-up with GIMP - and I thought how I can never do it myself! It seemed half-way through that it's not working well for my design but only I had to finish the steps and everything looked perfect then.
NICK!!!!! THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR THIS VID!!! I just started using Gimp this week and im still trying to work out the kinks on this program and you basically simplified what i wanted to accomplish!!
Thank you for having clear audio. There are a lot of great tutorials out there with the worst voice-over audio ever. I really appreciate that you have a decent mic and speak at a reasonable volume. Lol, also, great information.
Thank you Nick, just starting my own children's t-shirt business in the UK. Ive got a long way to go but this is a fantastic start, hopefully will learn loads
Say what! So, I am looking for a tutorial on how to do exactly this on youtube and I find that you, awesome Nick, made this and uploaded it today?! Awesome!
Great tutorial, how simple just amazed, I added a layer mask onto the colour fill layer erased logo area so now the change of colour automatically fills around the logo :)
Great tutorial Nick! One recomendation for time for anyone who's changing the color of the t-shirt, use alpha to selection on the color layer after cutting out the logo from it then fill it with foreground color, therefore you don't need to keep cutting it out. Keep up the great work 👏👏.
I agree because it's the open-source one-two punch, just like Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop...except Inkscape and Gimp is much faster, more optimized, and available everywhere. I'm on Linux so everything is made using open-source tech.
No reflection on Nick, this tut is terrific; and no reflection on GIMP, they created something beyond amazing for FREE! But man, I programmed mainframe computers, taught myself HTML, CSS, PHP, Javascript, and built an app and none of that was as difficult to grasp as creating graphics with GIMP (or any such tool). I believe first, you have to be versed in graphics to know how to do, and what can be done. This is not intuitive.
hey nick I,am a 14year old boy with gimp and inkscape graphic designer skills from india. i learned my half of my skills from your coachings thank you bro. i need more pressed logo videos and embroided logo designs video from you , from , A skills needing boy waiting for your support............................................
Hi Nick, are you able to or do you have any videos of how to get the type of files for different clothes to be able to use on gimp? for instance hoodys, joggers etc. i cant seem to find a photo of different items to work with on gimp with the chequered background? How do you do that?
HELP! I tried this with my own images, but when I add my png design onto the background mock up layer and chose "mode: darken only" (2:15 on the video) the png design practically disappears, its non-visible other than a faint colour in parts. I figured it was because my mock up background image is a jpeg, so i added alpha channel and converted it to a png, and tried the process again, but the same thing happened again. Not sure where I'm going wrong. Please can anyone help? For reference: I'm trying to mock up my design onto my own photo of a black tote bag.
Hello Nick, thanks for all the great tutorials . They've helped make a big difference in my design skills. I have one little challenge with my GIMP software though. When I choose a color from the color picker, and fill with foreground color it just gives me a shade of grey. No matter which color I try. Please how can I fix this.
hi Nick,when i tryed to insert the logo show it on black and white,i tryed many and the same,fine i found the same in inkscape,but i wanna start learning gimp as well
Nick great videos. I do have a question about the tutorial can you tell me when I created the color layer and then filled with foreground color it also filled color behind the shirt as well. Any thoughts on why that happened?
darken only doesnt effect the logo one bit for me. even after selecting darken only mode, Logo does not look like it is printed on the shirt. what am i missing ?
Hey man thanks for the vid. I do have a question though, when i export it- it creates a blue background can you guide me how to export with transparency
Hi Nick, thanks for sharing your wisdom. I was playing around with this tutorial for tshirt mockups, I instead put the colored layer on top of the log and added a layer mask to it by selecting alpha channel of the logo and inverted the selection, then i added the layer mask as selection on the filled color layer. this way i found that you can replace the color (or just duplicate it first) of the filled color layer without having to cut out the cut out the image every time you make a new layer. whats your thought on that?
Do you have a video already (or perhaps one in the works) on how to do this in Inkscape? Thank you so much for all of your awesome videos and for providing a download for the blank tshirt.
Im following you for a time now. I like your videos it help me alot in my study, im studing graphic design and we are useing also gimp :) .this is how i found you last month 😆. Cool videos bro. U also made me love gimb and inscape, we also use scribus!!! Can you make some videos working with scribus? Thanks! Greetings from Amsterdam ( The Netherlands ) ✌
I'm new to all this... so how do i get the t-shirt mock up with the gray background. The one that I downloaded has a white background so when I follow the instructions to change the color it colors shirt and background. I would appreciate any help.
Is there a way to do this without losing the coloring of the design? On some of mine I lose the white parts of the design when I darken if I am putting it on a colored or gray shirt.
yo nick, i've been trying to make some shirts mockup but when i add the image GIMP turn it to grayscale. this happens only if i import the image over the t-shirt model, if i open it alone the image have the color...what am i missing?
@@LogosByNick I'm having the same problem. The first time I imported the image is was in color. Now, every image I import is in grayscale. Image/mode/RGB did nothing. Any ideas?
Love the channel Nick! I'm curious, what's the tool you use to show which buttons are being pressed? I had seen it in your Inkscape Explained: Editing Nodes, Paths & The Bezier Pen video. Thanks :)
The best channel for Gimp tutorials, Thanks Nick!

Thanks Nick! This was by far the best quick tutorial using step by step easy to understand process.
NICK! .. you're a real one sir. I hope you're doing great in life!
Awesome video! very easy and simple to follow. Going to use to make some mock ups for my T shirt business!
There is nothing easier than that.. Simply, you are more than wonderful
I Love your Channel! Greetings from Bogotá, Colombia! You're Awesome!
Thanks man!!! Was so hard to find someone teaching so well like you
Say what!
So, I am looking for a tutorial on how to do exactly this on youtube and I find that you, awesome Nick, made this and uploaded it today?! Awesome!
But wait, You use the move and unified transform tool separately?
You can just use the unified transform tool to move
Excellent as always, and so useful! I'm not selling any tshirts, but the photoshopping tricks this can do are mind-blowing!
Great tutorial, how simple just amazed, I added a layer mask onto the colour fill layer erased logo area so now the change of colour automatically fills around the logo :)
Can't thank you enough for your wonderful design lessons! Thanks a lot Nick!
every time i feel curious abt somthing on gimp i found it on ur channel, thanks a lot.
Great tutorial Nick! One recomendation for time for anyone who's changing the color of the t-shirt, use alpha to selection on the color layer after cutting out the logo from it then fill it with foreground color, therefore you don't need to keep cutting it out. Keep up the great work 👏👏.
You are a legend thank you for all your videos
Thank-You for posting! The industry is so heavingly reliant on PSD files. It is almost impossible to find a decent mockup without Photoshop.
I did not know it was so easy to do that O_o
Nice!!
Nice vid Nick, very easy to understand! Thanks!
Hi Nick...Thankyou for these awersome tutorials..do you have a mockup for hoodies?
Great advice as always. Thank you Nick
Nice. Do more of both inkscape and gimp
I agree because it's the open-source one-two punch, just like Adobe Illustrator and Photoshop...except Inkscape and Gimp is much faster, more optimized, and available everywhere. I'm on Linux so everything is made using open-source tech.
this video has just helped me so much thankyou

hi Nick,when i tryed to insert the logo show it on black and white,i tryed many and the same,fine i found the same in inkscape,but i wanna start learning gimp as well
That's great already. Looking forward to having actual place holder like smart objects in gimp. Meanwhile keep up the good work 👍
Nick great videos. I do have a question about the tutorial can you tell me when I created the color layer and then filled with foreground color it also filled color behind the shirt as well. Any thoughts on why that happened?
good work man
darken only doesnt effect the logo one bit for me. even after selecting darken only mode, Logo does not look like it is printed on the shirt. what am i missing ?
If its not png then the background of the logo will not be transparent, either cut out the background or choose a transparent png
@@spoofy0760 same thing for me. Both images png
As always Awesome.
Thank you for this tutorial!
Thanks Bro❤
thank you!! May I ask you something? what if we want to change is the pattern of shirts? Like jersey football kit mockup?
Thats cool, how do you do the back with number and name of soccer player?
Hey man thanks for the vid. I do have a question though, when i export it- it creates a blue background can you guide me how to export with transparency
Thank you so much you helped me a lot

Yes I did a tutorial about doing this with Inkscape a year or two ago. It should be there if you search for Inkscape shirt mockup.
Im following you for a time now. I like your videos it help me alot in my study, im studing graphic design and we are useing also gimp :) .this is how i found you last month 😆. Cool videos bro.

Is there a way to do this without losing the coloring of the design? On some of mine I lose the white parts of the design when I darken if I am putting it on a colored or gray shirt.
Perhaps the best option is to use symbol selection and crop the white shirt image, then place it on the top layer and set to multiply.
Very helpful, thanks.
Yesss I'm very interesting, thank you!
Gawd damn that's not a bad shirt design at all :o
yo nick, i've been trying to make some shirts mockup but when i add the image GIMP turn it to grayscale. this happens only if i import the image over the t-shirt model, if i open it alone the image have the color...what am i missing?
Sounds like your document mode is set to greyscale. Go to Image > Mode and select RGB
@@LogosByNick Best tutorials, thank you. I experienced the same thing, while it never happened with your other gimp tutorials. Hmmm...
@@LogosByNick I'm having the same problem. The first time I imported the image is was in color. Now, every image I import is in grayscale. Image/mode/RGB did nothing. Any ideas?
Also, under Image/mode, indexed... is selected by default
@@LogosByNick Additionally, if I add a layer or type some text, there is no color for any of it. Tried typing "help" in red. Shows up gray.
Nick - LOVE your videos!!!! how do i setup gimp to look like this? I have the standard view and don't know how to change it.
Prototype Eight windows-dock able dialogues- drag and drop it
And make sure that your view is single window mode
@@the_nowhereboy9052 thanks - yeah i found it about 3 minutes after i asked the question... lol
Lol
Is there a way to creat logos or design to print out ? I have a heat press machine and I have gimp but I’m defending a novice.
