    The last one expand the object and use pathfinder trim to cut all Then use same color fill and delete white areas all done! Rather than selecting one by one. Great useful video 👍

    Good stuff! Just implemented all these rules today. Cleaning it up is key, but don’t forget to save an edible file separately in case you do need to make additional edits. 😀

    Thanks Dansky for another great video to improve our logo creation skills. As a beginner, still trying to understand the concept of shapes and strokes and how and when to unite them so that the shapes/strokes don't turn into one solid shape. If you have a video on that, please let me know.

    I love the shirt you have. Can you consider doing a tutorial on making theme art series or logos to be converted into shirts? Like what colors to use, the best area coverage, front or back or both? Frames or blend-ins? etc.

    Instead of the shape builder tool to clean up the cup, after expanding, I use Merge in the pathfinder. It separates all the black and white in one fell swoop while keeping everything looking the same as before. Then I magic wand the black and lock it all down. Then with the group selection tool select all the unlocked elements (which should be white and clear) and delete.
