Love the book cover. I myself have a fondness for the Hexagon grid. The meeting of the hexagon lines with the brush stroke / grunge edges was a very nice touch.

I like the third one best - its layout doesn't feel overwhelming to see. But all were nicely done. And I think your title works well too, Rick.

Yay, I'm famous! Thank you for demonstrating the answer to my question. Your cover looks great! And the title is perfect. I vote for the third infographic too, but agree with the other commenters - the colour is a bit garish, and two facing pages might be best for that much information. The title is bland too, but other than the bit of tweaking that it needs, I think it's the most suitable for your vision. I look forward to more updates as your book progresses. 👀📚

'InkScape Illustrated' is more meaningful and descriptive and reader knows what to expect.

Fantastic idea to make a book, Rick! Your tutorials have played a huge role in my inkscape abilities! Love the cover - and even more so that you were willing to show us all how you created it, and weaved some tips in there too!! Bummed the spray paint trees and graffiti didn't make it though lol. Congrats on the Fiverr sponsorship! So well deserved. I like the 3rd one best but agree the typeface could be improved - and perhaps change up the color a bit too! If there's any way I can be helpful with editing when you get to that phase, I'd love to lend a hand!

Thanks again for your tutorials. I would definitely prefer a .pdf instead of printed book due to physical limitations. Stay inspired!

👍 Babar Mumtaz. Thank you for this tutorial. I like reading, and I have a lot of books. If I want to change the covers of my books, I'll make my own project.🙏

Holy Cow! I was just talking to my husband about how a book of exercises to help learn the aspects of Inkscape would be awesome; and here it is! It's great to have tutorials online, but it would be more advantageous (for me at least) to have a structured workbook of sorts to show some of the techniques used in Inkscape to be put to practical use. Not just "here's how to make this logo" or something like that. Something that people can refer to when they have an idea of their own or like me, wanting to work towards becoming a better artist and venturing out into being a freelancer. I like the last infographic layout, but not the font or colour. Orange is a bit hard on the eyes. I'd go with a softer blue header and stick with more grey tones on the instructions. Also, I'd use the word "action" instead of "objective." Just a quick heads up: I've noticed that users who use Linux such as myself sometimes have different keyboard shortcuts. i.e. using Alt+left mouse for lasso does not work for me (that minimises the window.) I use Ctl+Alt+left mouse to activate the lasso. So it might be worth noting to save people frustration. Looking forward to the finished product! As always, keep up the awesome work!

Love your videos. I like the third infographic best.

I prefer the 3rd design by "Babar Mumtaz". But I think your design will be much better only if you got time to do it.

Rick, I love them all really ither one will help me.

Hey Rick, just a quick note to say thank you again. This might sound odd, but I’m a quilter and that’s how I first got onto Inskape, mainly to transfer shapes into a cutting machine. For the new year, I decided to try a new pattern with hexagons. I couldn’t work out how to stagger them so as not to waste fabric. Anyway, I suddenly remembered watching your cover tutorial and thought Ha! So thanks again, that saved me tons of time trying to work it out! Happy new year by the way! Is your book finished yet?

Hey Rick, great vid, thanks. I like #3. Book title works. When is the book due? I want one! 😜"Please!" and I'll pay for it, too.

I like the first design best

It's an image of the earth they want us to believe. 🤔

I like number 3 Rick. I’m sure you’ll let us know when book is published. Take my money please

Hey Rick, Thanks for the video. I prefer the third one best Babar Mumtaz, layout is nicley condensed on one page for easy reference, and a perfect title too.

Fantastic...tanks...

Since you are doing your book as 6x9, I think your shortcuts should be on multiple pages. I think if the first person had used more white space (like 3 pages,) you would have liked it more. I do like the mouse pictures, but I didn't like the ORANGE color on the last one. Overall, I liked the first one because of the buttons and boxes, but it was smooshed. I LOVE the cover of your project, though. That is going to be a FANTASTIC book, just like your videos.

One of the best tut.

At 9:31... A backquote is slanted to the left [ ` ]. It's shown slanted to the right.

All three designs were good, but I liked #3 (Barbar) the best. As said by others, "I want to buy this book" when it is published. Please announce when/where/how much ASAP! Thanks

I love the book title 🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉 And I think most of the viewers have voted what I like too.

Hi Rick, cover looks great! Congrats on the book, fab idea. Re the shortcuts: probably the 3rd, I do prefer the layout of the 1st one though (although I don’t like the fonts). Good luck!

Hey! I like the name you choose. Thanks for the videos, your work is inspiring

Hi Rick , Glad to have found you. I will work through your tutorials in coming days. I am seeing conflicting information that using ICC profiles you can output in CMYK. Is this there a way to do it. Of course I subscribed

what you miss f.e. on the mask features or page tool....? p.s. perfect explaining ... Danke ....

Voting for #3, but in a different colourway, please Looking forward to your book. Will it be a printed version? Then spiralbound would be nice, because they lay flat when opened. Or is it going to be an eBook? Would save the shipping to Germany (cost and pollution) Title is perfect.

Really like the title of your book. I'd go with the premium service, the third graphic. $60 is super cheap for a premium service.

I vote Babar (did I spell that right?) I I do think that all of the shortcuts on a single page might be too much. Maybe on two facing pages? But, I do have old eyes 🤓

2nd or third design best. Is the inclusion of "Illustrated" in the title a veiled reference to Illustrator? Nice cover. Best of luck with this project.

I have a question How this cover well be printed and inkscape doesn't support CMYK colour?

What's the status on the book? I don't see it listed in the store yet

I'm interested in the book.

I was just thinking about you and up popped this video! I have a question, if you don’t mind. I traced a simple black and white logo. I ended up with 100s of separate line segments that are not connected at the end points. Was there a setting that will reduce these separation? Now on to your video 😀

The third one, Babar. It's a better layout but I hate the color. It's hard to read the type inside of orange. Your title is fine.

Lol, why are all 3 hotkeys sheet versions so messy 😆? The purpose of this cheatsheet is to let the readers find a hotkey, quickly and easily. Keeping this in mind, and strictly IMHO: 1. 8:11 The graphic elements, color choice and all caps serif everywhere make it hard to read. Though I like the landscape orientation and the idea of using a color code. 2. 8:45 This one is better. What I would do: - change the font color of the hotkeys to black or white, for better contrast - change the font of the hotkey description to something less tall and narrow and easier to read - make all hotkeys font size the same (you can make Ctrl, Shift and Alt rectangles the same size, different from other rectangles) - make all hotkey letters either uppercase or lower case (the first page especially) - use a kind of color-coding, for ex., make the Ctrl, Alt, Shift rectangles gray and the ones with F1-F12 white with an orange border - since it's 3 pages, make 3 columns, the one in the middle with the hotkey description, the two on both sides with the hotkey variants. Remove "+" and "," and align the first column by right sides and the last column by left sides I like the header and the background 👍. 3. 9:23 This one is the easiest to read. Though I would: - make all the upper and lowercase uniform, both in the hotkeys and their description (all letters in the hotkeys should have the same case and all first letters in the descriptions should have the same case) - make "Tools", "Objective" (isn't it "Objects"?) and "Canvas" less imposing - change the header, it looks a bit outdated 😝 - use color-coding - remove "+" and replace "," with more space or some other visual separation. I don't know if it was a requirement but I think "+" and "," separating the text are good and valid, but between graphic elements, they are harder to read and not really necessary. BTW, is it Ctrl+U for "Ungroup"? I always used Ctrl+Shift+G *confused*

Hi Rick, how do you get rid of that black square at 5:10

Its time do a map tutorial i think =) Can you make couple color variations for the same map after you finish as well =) Thank You

the intersection doesn't work with me 😢

I'm sorry, why isn't there a Turkish subtitle option? 😢
