I stumbled upon this after I watched another video for the same problem. I was about to 'subscribe', but gave up the idea after listening to you guys for about a minute. The content was fine, but the speed was just killing. End result: you just lost one potential and rather interested subscriber! :(

In your personal life you can speak however fast you want, and do so normally, but when you make a video that's to be watched by millions, it just HAS to be clear & with meaningful speed in oration.

@dubiousfella Hey, thank you for taking the time to provide us with your feedback. Apologies that you were unable to clearly hear our narration in the video, we are aware that in some of our earlier videos, we speak far too quickly. This is something we've been working on - to slow down how quickly we talk in the videos. James.

Nice tutorial and all, but uh....try to speak 10%-20% slower..... It will make the listener want to listen, and not give up trying to listen....

[crearegroup]

Thank's for the feedback sirlinkyalot, we'll slow it down in future!

no problem with the speed.

I dont get it ...I'm an American and I understand these guys just fine. Must be all the Harry Potter movies I watched.

Waauw this is brilliant, I didn't know you could do that! here I was always tracing my logo's with the pen tool.. yes, I'm a real beginner. You got a lot of comments on your speed of talking, I must say I really enjoy the speed of this video, I couldn't quite follow the introduction, but the speed at which the tutorial goes suits me very well... I hate watching tutorials that go sooo slooow that you're sitting around waiting for the next step for minutes THANKS! Will be back for more

this helps but I'm trying to convert a logo with multiple colours, it's not as simple as filling the logo with red like they did here...it doesn't really help me...I'm stuck with a black logo and no way to recolour it.

will this version of Adobe Illustrator CS4 (Windows) Educational version work for doing what you are demonstrating in this video?

[ameliagwen1]

native english speaker here, I found your pace just right; skipped several other tutorials for taking too long to make the same point

Cant believe u guys!

U turn a jpeg into a... crappy looking piece of vector, which looks nothing like the original. Why do all the one-button-wizards feel the need to share their wisdom with the world. I´m dying to see ur next vid, maybe youll share the secret illustrator technique of typing the letter "c" with pointed index finger.

Useless...
