Dude you are so good at this. I really appreciate you talking through exactly what you are doing, like saying the specific values because it means I can follow along with YouTube minimized and gimp opened for maximum time use. Thank you!!

You dont know how much i appreciate your videos on gimp, its not as big as photoshop but you still post tutorials

I've had a vinyl cutter for over 20 years... I'm thinking of buying a new Roland print-cut unit now... Your Gimp/Inkscape videos are incredible for showing me what's possible to create, and how to do it! Thank you so much for posting!

Awesome tutorial! It was a bit difficult equating the instructions to the new version of Gimp, but it helped me get more familiar with the tools and such, but regardless thanks for making this video

Even though this is for an older version of GIMP, it's still an awesome tutorial!!

Dude, it seems like you know every little detail about Gimp. Super impressive and awesome tutorial!

I love you. In every good way possible. You have no idea how happy I am right now. And, it's all because of you.

Thank you so much. This might be the only tutorial like this I've ever followed that hasn't gone wrong.

Thank you so much for creating all your free content! I created the logo in my profile picture with it and did a simple GIF animation in GIMP.

Nick ... you are doing the best youtube tutorials for Inkscape by far!

[samjohnson]

Loved this one. I've been looking for a long time for the techniques you demo in this video.

This is an EXCELLENT video. Thanks for posting. I needed something just like this for a TRON movie night at my house. Totally perfect.

This is awesome! I wrote "space cowboy" and tried to give it the feeling of country music videos from the mid 80s.

I just wanted to say thank you for taking the time to make such a brilliant video. Im a real novice at Gimp and I was able to navigate it easily and ended up making g a fantastic reproduction, using my own text. Thanks again, and keep up the great work on all your views!

Thank you! This is such a clear, concise and very helpful tutorial for a noob like me. Much appreciated.

In GIMP 2.10 it seems that the gaussian blur plugin is different from the version you're using (150 produces a very larger blur).
Actually, also the "HSV Noise" is different in result...

I love how you take control and roll down that mouse wheel logo daddy!

Thanks dude, you're awesome! I'd rather stay at home and watch your tutorials than waste money going back to school
