nice and clear, no faffing about, good to find tutorials for those who have a base understanding of illustrator instead of ones that spend like 10 mins talking about, now this is what a vector image is!

[EIRENARCH]

of all the helpfull videos you have made, this is the most important one imo. thanks for all the good work in making our workflows better

[kitwackadoo]

Clear and to the point! Awesome. Please keep it simple and describe each step. top work!

[MarkManSC]

Appreciate your video! If you check "Ignore white" in the Image Trace window, it will ignore the white background all together. Last, you can expand in the same window without going to menus. Look just above the top of the image window near center and you will see the "Expand" button. Click it and you're done. Cheers!

Thank you! Expand was the step I was missing. You just changed my editing life!
