absolutly brilliant tutorial, i found this easy to use and understand. The fact that you also give the keyboard shortcuts is very very helpful. Thanks! :)

[REMCUREBOY]

once again another tutorial. wayyyy too fast and confusing.

[beatsme991]

i was just wondering, can you tell me how to make it into an icon?

[stianplay123]

B.T.W. NICE NICE NICE!:)

First of all, a big thank you for these tutorials. Something I can't get right...When I delete the mask after releasing the opacity mask and after I delete the drop shadow in the Appearance window, I still have a drop shadow on the sides and bottom of the image. It looks like those are supposed to be gone after doing those steps but I can't seem to get rid of it on mine.

No complaints about the instructions (other than misleadingly calling this fully vector art when it uses multiple raster effects). Your tutorials are among the best to be found. But I just gotta say: have you never seen a file folder?

[scientist100]

Nate, are you planning on buying the new version of adobe products (CS5)?

[FoBxPaRaMORE]

i know this sounds stupid, but how do you use these after you make them ?

[mybuddydj]

lol "check out this nice little".... its 20 minutes long XD i enjoyed every minute of it

[lekofev]

really thank you

[IntensePizza]

So that program is were adobe, apple ect; make their icons?

[drekw2]

Amazing tutorial, and usual very well explained!

[Fancylooks]

You are very good explaining everystep. I use illustrator since the 88 version, but I wouldn't be able to explain every step I do or what keys I press, I just do it without looking and if somebody asks me how do I do it I am unable to answer and they may think I don't want to help them and that I am rude. You are so lucky to have that much control!

[fooblet]

well when you teach, i find, its best to do the lesson first and take notes on yourself, then tell the person when you show them the second time.

[xFishNinjax]

thanks a lot man, that was really helpful.

looking forward to more of your tutorials :)

[Klawification]

Keep up the excellent work uve done till now, nice tutorials!

[zzTeChJoEzz]

Good vid Nathaniel.

[AndersTherkildsen]

@tutvid Ahh.. it all makes sense now! :P

Being a web developer entering the world of design, your tutorials has truly been a great help! No where online have i been able to find similar tutorials with the high level of quality and so easy to understand so on behalf of others in the same position as me, THANK YOU!

I would really love to see you make a tutorial about making logos in Illustrator. perhaps where you copy the perp work (diagonal strips measurements etc. of - bit. ly /6SYdIy)

[tirathmistry]

[supermiimi]

KRASS!

[TheProductionsPetre]

nice!

[j00d00d]

great stuff, although it looks like the example at the start had the shine over top of the T's?

[2605aslan2605]

he just put made another clipping mask with the "shine" he also made earlier in the video

[tutvid]

@j00d00d Yes, you are correct, I should have dragged that text Layer below the shine there...

N.

[shakaama]

your original has the light on top of the T's, so i guess you did that after the letters.

[tutvid]

@shakaama Yep, just needed to drag them below.

[AndersTherkildsen]

As usual a great tutorial!

Just a beginners question, if i want to decrease 15 px rounded corner, to a higher or lower value, is there a way to do so, without having to click and insert the values each time.

- Please reply to my post, so i get the notification - Thanks!

[tutvid]

@AndersTherkildsen Sure, just click with the Rounded Rectangle Tool and set the exact corner you want.

:P

[kickit246]

This vid is awesome. So is this something that you can set as a desktop icon or something? Replace the other folder icons with this one? If so, that is freaking awesome!!! Once I get a good grasp on photoshop, I'll probably start up on Illustrator. Thanks tutvid :)

[FlegDesigns]

Well, you'd need to save the image as a .png or .ico I believe.

[tutvid]

@kickit246 Sure you could if you like! You would need to convert to an ICO however.

N.

[kickit246]

@tutvid

O yea, cool, thank you. (FlegDesigns as well)

[SheerPhotoshop]

@tutvid How do you convert it to an ICO?? :) please can you post a vid for that?? :)

thanks man, great tut though :)
