It's too small. I can't read it... Also when I zoom in it stays the same size and the magnifier makes it blury.....

After Reading these first few guides I'm Still confused on how to create vector art ponies could Quasdar or someone else make a video about how to properly vector ponies on youtube or some other free watching site? or post a good already made video? I would greatly Appreciate either one.

Don't feel bad. I don't know how to vector at all. I'm ready to kill someone over this shit. "It's so easy" they say. Bullshit.

Oh I know right?It's downright irritating and I'm running out of patience.

I understand how to get the lines to bend (I'm using photoshop CS6) but further than that, I'm at a loss. Layers and everything else are like Chinese to me...

GAH I made a line with the nodes, and it's not making it sharp at the ends! HELP!!!!

Increase the "Miter Limit" in the Stroke-menu. If you were talking about that.

Granted, I've learned all of this before reading the tutorial, but that only goes to say that what you have here is absolutely correct. I learned the bit about bumpy points the hard way...

sweet, just learned something new even though i've been doing this for... half a year now?

I had to learn this the hard way (by myself, mostly).
Also, a small tip: When erasing nodes, holding CTRL doesn't maintain the original shape. It can be useful after converting the path to filled shape, and you need to "sharpen" the tip of the trace.

Better- make that the default behavior in preferences [link] and you never have to hold Ctrl again. I like it this way myself.

I usually don't use a lot one more than the other, so it would be the same (for me)

Thanks for bringing that up. It used to bug me that it was the default behavior it used, it just ceased to be a problem as soon as I unchecked that box. So I didn't think to mention that at all

I've seen this so many times but I didn't know it was made in inkscape!

I have never thought about using the arrow keys before, i might consider to use it.
Many thanks for the tutorial !

Very nice set of guidelines. I'm sure a lot of people will find it useful. ^^

Dear God. Everytime I see the sharp corners with the let's-see-how-far-this-point-can-go attitude, I seriously look around the room for something to rage on! And usually it's them, resulting in a button mash of Ctrl+Z. Or, just *cough* simple adjustments too.

When I see that I do what is recommended in the tutorials before the tutorials come out I am very happy.
