I sometimes find myself using clip in Inkscape, but do it slightly differently, I trace the photo with Brightness Cut-off and work from there. For the photo you've used, I'd probably invert it. Love your videos, my work has improved 10 fold since I started watching. Thanks.
For a long time I used this technique because I didn't use Gimp, but I didn't know I could do it 4:18 and remove internal parts. Always learning new things. Thanks.
Hey Nick, love your videos, really concise and informative! But could you do a tutorial on how to make a simple, cartoony style logo for branding, ie music producer alias. But from a sketch, either sketched by hand and photo imported into gimp or inkscape, or electronic tablet sketch ideas? Would be awesome to see your process as I plan on doing this but have limited experience with graphic design Cheers and keep up the great content! 😁
Thanks for your great videos. I have learned so much from you. Do you have any tips for making the hair look more natural during background removal? I have a hard time taking out the background and still retaining the small strands of hair that make the photo appear natural. Is that a thing more suited to GIMP? I have not used GIMP much yet.
Hi Nick, I have learnt a lot from your videos and thanks for great work and effort. How can I convert a Low Resolution Logo into a High Res Vector Graphic in Inkscape?
Brilliant tut's, easy to follow. Do you use/recommend Affinity Designer at all? As an inkscape user it looks like a useful bit of software but im not sure if its worth the price and time. Thanks Nick.
My 3 year old has finally finished off my laptop so it's time for a new one. Could you please post a video explaining what to look for in a good graphic design laptop?
Sorry to hear that! I wrote an article about this not too long ago. The info is up to date as of October 2019: logosbynick.com/graphic-design-computer-requirements/
I noticed you often change your document properties at the beginning of your videos. I learned a little trick to save your default document properties so it doesn't change back every time you make a new file. Open a new file in Inkscape (you may need to open Inkscape as Administrator on Windows) and change your Document Properties to the ones you prefer (units to px, don't show page border, etc). Once you change them go to File > Save As. Save it as "default.svg" in your Inkscape installation folder > share folder > templates folder > default.svg (C:\Program Files\Inkscape\share\templates\default.svg). Once saved, every time you open Inkscape it will retain your defaults.
Hello Nick I am French and I am learning lots with yours videos. Thank you. I would like to know if you will made a video to learn how to draw a Easter egg as it is coming up. Thank you for your answer or tell me where I can find TUTOS. Look after yourself Marie
Great video on this topic Nick. In your video you mentioned using this method sometimes in Inkscape. You are a master with both Gimp and Inkscape, from your POV when would you use Inkscape over GIMP to crop a photo? Thanks for your videos I really enjoy your work!
Nick, can you solve my problem here? So, i always use the clip command to crop photo, it did but the bounding box always ended based on the original photo, not the cropped one. How to solve it? Because it is annoying when i need to align it. Thanks, nice tutorial as always.
Hi Nick! How do I save my image that I cropped so that I can insert it on top of another background in a different app? Thank you always for these videos. I am learning so much so fast :-)
Select the image Select Export PNG Image (or press Shift+Ctrl+E) In the Export area option, select "Selection" Then choose where to export it with the "Export as..." option Then go ahead and click Export
Thanks Nick! Question: do you know if it is possible to achieve a grainy texture in Inkscape? Kinda like the work of fellow TH-cam creator Dan Gartman?
Nick your tutorials are fantastic my fried I use paint.net to achieve this then save the picture as png file and then import for my projects Paint .net is free (donate if you wish) and just open the picture you want into the program or drag and drop then use the wand and the slider at the top of the page for strength requires job done takes seconds
Hi Nick, thank you for your videos. i would like to know how to remove colors from images (using gimp or inkscape) to make coloring book for my kids. Many thanks
Right click then trace bitmap image already chosen in inkscape, select multiple scans to 0 and then choose colors from the drop down option, select the remove background command, then click on update then ok, then close. After just click and drag on the image to have the black lines image without color and the original one.
Hope you can answer this question. I've installed some new fonts. They show up in Microsoft office and other applications but they arent showing up in inkscape... any ideas??
Say you have Corel or Illustrator. You import an image and you want to crop it. You can just go and resize it normally or covert the outline to curves and use nodes to do that in real time without changing or risizing the image. It's handy when you have several images that you want to join to create the final image. The image itself only "distorts" or changes size if you convert it to bitmap after importing it. In Inkscape, i'm starting to believe you always have to create some kind of mask of what you want, then apply it to the image or use tricks like "convert to pattern". That is not practical in any sense, unless you need to do it, and for me, it's enough to uninstall. Inkscape is kind of terrible in many ways.
Todd Moore . Absolutely. Some are paid some are free but if you’re only doing one or two images at a time you’ll get it done free online most of the time. Just search for ‘free online background removal’ or similar.

Your videos should be on inkscape homepage
Hell they should be paying you for demostrating just how good inkscape is
Thank you Dany but I could never take a dime from Inkscape. They've already given me so much with their free software.
THANK YOU SO MUCH. I TOOK A BUNCH OF FLORAL PICS AND HAVE BEEN CLIPPING AWAY BUT COULDN'T FIGURE OUT HOW TO THE INTERIOR AREAS. WOO HOO
Thanks! This tutorial helped me alot!!
Spent half a day trying to work this out before I found this video. Thanks mate!
Wow! Thanks Nick for your helpful video. This is so useful..
Thanks Nick! I knew it could be done but couldn't remember what it was called. Legend.
Amazing tutorial! I'm glad there are Inkscape tutorial videos and also GIMP. Appreciate it!
Best tutorial about cropping in Inkscape
Great Job explaining! Watch your Inkscape videos all the time.
Thank you so much Nick for guiding us all! You're the best! ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
I love You for this. I needed that so bad! Thank You!
This video was a lifesaver! You did it again, thank you!
Thankyou that was very easy to follow 😊
That's just what I was looking for, thanks Nick!
I prefer this method to doing it in Gimp.
For cropping, nothing like the good old times Microsoft Paint. BMP format glory days.
Thanks Nick. I was really surprised by how good Inkscape is.
Thanks a lot. it's really helpful. thank you so much!!!
so good.
A lot of thanks for the video ‼️
Thanks for another great tool for the ole tool box.
Thank you

I though cropping was something else, still enjoyed the video as always.
Yeah, me too. I'm pretty sure the technique in the video is called 'masking'.
I thought 'cropping' is when you resize the boundary of the image.
@@beachforestmountain4269 You're both right technically. You could use masking to crop a photo/resize its boundaries.
@@beachforestmountain4269 crop means “cut short” or “trim”
nice tip Nick!

Okay

Hi. Love your tutorials mate. Have you got anything to recommend on how to make a website's logo?
Hi Nick, so can you save that out as a PNG and preserve the transparency?

Thanks Nick! Question: do you know if it is possible to achieve a grainy texture in Inkscape? Kinda like the work of fellow TH-cam creator Dan Gartman?
I'm not sure. Maybe if you play around with some of the filters and extensions you could find something. I don't use them much personally.
@@LogosByNick oh okay. Thanks for replying and thanks for all the kick ass content!
I got a photo, but I wanted to take the photo and make a circle around the picture. How can I do that?
What do you prefer, inkscape or gimp?
It depends on what I'm doing. They're both very different tools. For logo design I like Inkscape. For editing photos I like GIMP.
how do you make an svg wave for a website background with this software? is it even possible? Where can I find info on it?
when I select the selection and apply path/difference, the selection just disappears. help me nick

Hi Nick, thank you for your videos. i would like to know how to remove colors from images (using gimp or inkscape) to make coloring book for my kids. Many thanks
Use ms paint and fill it with white colour or just download the tool for making images black and white
Right click then trace bitmap image already chosen in inkscape, select multiple scans to 0 and then choose colors from the drop down option, select the remove background command, then click on update then ok, then close. After just click and drag on the image to have the black lines image without color and the original one.

Hope you can answer this question. I've installed some new fonts. They show up in Microsoft office and other applications but they arent showing up in inkscape... any ideas??
On inkscape you must "install the font for all users" (windows user)
Say you have Corel or Illustrator. You import an image and you want to crop it. You can just go and resize it normally or covert the outline to curves and use nodes to do that in real time without changing or risizing the image.
