Is it really a good idea to be still interested today in Affinity, because of the things will change very soon after Canva has bought the Serif Company.

Even for a "non-beginner" that was fun. I kept trying to see what you would do ahead of time and do it before hand. I succeeded most of the time which means I probably learned a lot from your other courses. Thanks so much.

I've been using Affinity Photo for some time now and bought many of your excellent courses ( they've all been invaluable in helping me to widen my use of AP). But what I liked about this tutorial is that it reminded me of some of the basic operations I don't use as often as I should. It's easy to just use the same methods without looking at other options e.g. use of curves to lighten a photo. So once again, thanks for your the work you're doing , it's brilliant l

I watched this to see about your latest beginner tutorial but didn't need it myself. Really great that you included an introduction to the basics of using curves in this beginner tutorial. A lot of folks often bypass this and it look intimidating to beginners though it isn't. That was a really good basic introduction to a powerful tool. Fantastic and kudos for including that tool. For those interested, an even easier way to open a file, provided the user has their file browser open, is to simply drag and drop it into the document view area (the area where you see the image in Affinity), though this requires another program, the finder, to be open. Great material presented clearly with good pacing and high production quality as usual. Please keep up the great work!

Amazing tutorial as always! I've been using Affinity since the launch of Affinity 2, but always watch your videos, even the ones for beginners. :) There are two things that I would LOVE seeing in Affinity: 1. a vanishing point tool; 2. a tool to draw a straight line (something like what Krita has is much more useful and accurate than holding Shift and clicking on two different points).

Hi there ! I'm new in this program and trying to learn from your amazing video, that's why for the moment I have only trial version. I want to know if that's the reason I can'T access some of the features. For example at adjustment layers -curves , it doesn't show me anything, I can't play with the brighten. I have affinity photo 2 on Ipad. Thank you for your response

I can't remember how long ago I purchased Affinity, but I've looked for videos that clearly and concisely explain the basics since purchasing it. Up until the acquisition by Canva, I had no delusions that it would totally replace Adobe, but I've wanted it nonetheless as an alternative so that I can perform editing tasks on any of my computers and not be stifled by the access limitations imposed by Adobe. While I've found some videos that show specific tasks for specific edits, I had not found one that shows all the basic functions so easily. Trying to find guidance for Affinity has been as frustrating as it was when I first started using Adobe. I probably have more than 30 videos marked on how to use Affinity, but this one enables me to delete probably 90 percent of them. I do mostly astro landscape, and even though this video shows absolutely nothing about astro or landscape, its lessons are easily applicable to just about any type of image editing. We'll worth watching. I subscribed immediately. I haven't had a chance yet to browse your other videos, but I'm definitely going to. And I can't wait to see what you bring us with the changes that come with the Canva acquisition. If you haven't yet done a side by side Affinity and Photoshop tutorial, that would probably be of great value to all of us Affinity noobs. Show us a Photoshop task, then show how to do it in Affinity. I think a lot of us struggle with the translation. Many functions are the same or very similar, but many are different enough that it keeps us from using Affinity to its full potential. Learning how to use Affinity better might allow me to dump Adobe.

I know the Affinity Team not accept to AI to the Software like PS But we need some of these tools because it's really save a lot of time If they don't accept to add the generative tool Just give me Select Subject with Auto detect to save time of selection and I can complete it to refine edges or hair or any other what Picture need Also When we want to fix a lot of areas in-paint option depending on same picture.. but if I need it to fix with smart option it needs AI to add varieties of fixes So Must Affinity team rethink that AI purpose to add what we can use it to save time and complete work Also We need to support other language in Text to write in Arabic without going to another app or website to translate it and back to affinity to paste the result in Right Arabic language These small tips are important to help creative to use it easily with happy workflow Thanks

Yes, quite excellent. Remember we are beginners, keyboard shortcuts, no thanks. It’s already hard enough. Explain everything, context toolbar. I nearly stopped watching here, then you explained what a context toolbar is, and I thought, clever lady. We know nothing. Explain everything, and slowly. I couldn’t follow the video when you got to inpainting brush thing. But hey I’m a dummy, and maybe if I watch this 50 times, who knows! 😂 Anyway, well done. Your up there with Robin Whalley, 1st equals on you tube, for us dummies.
