    Flashback Express Screen Capture Software Overview

    February 24, 2019 /

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Not a week goes by that someone doesn’t ask me about the software I use to capture my screen for the tutorial videos I do. I use a program called Flashback Express by Blueberry Software – link below. There is a Pro version available at a decent price, but so far, I haven’t needed anything in the Pro version, so I continue to use the free version. As usual, if you have any questions, comments, or concerns, please feel free to comment! If you don’t wish to make a public comment, click this Contact Us link, and submit it to me privately.

    Vectric Software for the Absolute Beginner – Part 16

    February 17, 2019 /

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Polylines and Smart Snapping This article accompanies the sixteenth video in a series on my YouTube channel. If you’re not subscribed to my channel, here’s a link. Come on by and check it out. Hopefully you’ll find something you like. In this 16th video of the series, I’ll take a bit of a step back. A sharp-eyed viewer informed me that I had never covered drawing straight lines or polylines within the Vectric software in any of my videos. Well, after looking them over, I have to admit he was right. So in this video, I’ll do exactly that – and more. It’s impossible to discuss lines and polylines…

    [vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text] Part 15 – Basic Bitmap Tracing and Node Editing [/vc_column_text][/vc_column][/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]This article accompanies the fifteenth video in a series on my YouTube channel. If you’re not subscribed to my channel, here’s a link. Come on by and check it out. Hopefully you’ll find something you like. In this 15th video of the series, I’ll get a bit deeper into Bitmap Tracing within the Vectric software. We’ll import a rather simple color image into VCarve, and I’ll show you how to adjust the number of colors we want to trace in the bitmap. Then we’ll go in and do a little bit of image cleanup using the Node Editing mode. I’ll…
