wow this was amazing! and those little changes made such a huge difference. like having the letter the same height as icon. those tweaks are the difference between a designer and a good designer. I could really see this guy's talent, even with the simplest of examples
Really great tips Nathaniel! Thanks for pulling em together in one video that's just good fun to watch!
It's so pleasing. The setuping and mastering softs amazing.
Omg i stumbled on your videos, you are very active on the TUTVid on your website back in 2010, i was still a junior graphic designer and always on your website browsing for tutorials, and stumbling on your video at 12years later as a senior graphic designer makes me feel nostalgic to watch your videos!

This guy single handedly taught me more about graphic design than college. I got my paper from college, but the skills from him. He does a much better job than 90% of teachers.
Thank you for this. As an amateur graphic designer, this was awesome to learn
you're a great teacher, love the simplicity, with details! subbed!
I've gotten really used to CorelDRAW since entering the screen printing world. I'll be switching back to Illustrator thanks to you! Literally pointed out all the little tasks I was used to in Corel..... BRAVO 👏🏻
When this video ended, I stood up and did a slow clap it was that good. So many helpful tips not just for a beginner user but also for the experienced Illustrator user that may not be aware of new features that have been recently added. My personal favorite was the touch type tip. I do a lot of logos with lettering involved and spacing between letters would sometimes become an issue when looking at the entire aesthetic of the design. This was previously being remedied by the kerning option under the character window but not anymore. I was today years old when I discovered Hamburger icons are very sneaky and will be relying on that option so much more moving forward. Thanks for making such an educational and quality video! You have earned my subscription.
This works. Recommended to try this out. Thanks a lot for your help
Now I understand how to make loops and export everytNice tutorialng really god bless you.. your way of explaining simply aweso I loved it
Tip #8 is going to help me so much in my workflow, thanks a lot!
I could listen to Nice tutorialm talk for hours man what a passionate dude ❤️
These are superb hints and tips matey, thank you!!!
I can't thank you enough for this video, although thinking back over the last 15 years how much time those text alignment and color group tricks would have saved me almost makes me cry... But I'm happy I know them now =D
It´s working great. Thank you so much for sharing
OMG...thanks for the tips, man! Usefull AF...I really appreciate it! 👊

WOW! That was really amazingly helpful! Thanks a hundred!
Thanks so much for your thoughtful and detailed videos! On to the soft!
Cool tips. Love #1 & #11! For Pen tool, I prefer to ignore tangents (for the most part) while building; instead get them close (sometimes not even dragging tangent handles), and then use the Anchor Point tool (CTRL+C) and/or Direct Selection tool to then massage the Beziers more easily. Also, use shapes as much as possible and fuse them together with Unite or Shape Builder. Much faster than worrying about every single tangent as you go. Sometimes uniting can cause some CRAZY anchor points, so next time I run into that I'm going to see if the Smooth tool will help! Global colors also allow you to work with tints. :) I really wish the CTRL+D also worked in Photoshop!!!

YOU ARE THE BEST!!!!!!!
Sweet tutorial fam !
Wow 😱😱 Tutvid is back ? 😍😍🤤
Amazing
Thanks bro
nice tutorial, thanks. I have a question: I see that you set your units to points; what is more - let's say - practical to use as a basic unit in Illustrator, points or pixels? I know the difference between the two, but from a practical, everyday designer view, what would you suggest? thanks.

Points....When I was in publishing, the supervisors would literally come by with a pica ruler and measure your points for spacing.
Nice tutorial
saved my life

Hello, i rotated a object randomly, and now i want to rotate that into that's original position, how i know, what the degree i rotated that object?
Much love
it really worked
....I work in Illustrator a lot. so for my step and repeat I use the transform feature under effects. But I wanna explore a trick where I can have artwork that's not visible on the artboard but it is printable without the command+3 feature. There must be a way to keep a black artboard with content but not viewable. Do you have any ideas?
Now tNice tutorials was truly an aweso video. I love your thorough style
