New Youtube video : VectorStyler Repeater Basics

  • E

    So… I finally did it — I created a YouTube channel (abstractvector) dedicated specifically to VectorStyler tutorials.

    My intention is to help promote this fantastic software, so more designers discover it, try it, and hopefully adopt it as one of their creative tools. If the community grows and more licenses are sold, it strengthens support for the developer and benefits all of us long-term.

    This is my very first "spoken" YouTube tutorial ever — so I’m still learning how to be natural — but I tried to make the explanations as clear and structured as possible so people can follow along and reproduce the steps.

    VectorStyler has so much depth, flexibility, and a unique approach… but for newcomers coming from traditional vector apps, the learning curve can feel confusing at first. My goal with the channel is to help flatten that curve and make discovery easier, step by step.

    Now that the first video is done (which is the hardest), I plan to publish more, including shorter videos exploring more advanced features as time allows.

    Thanks for taking a look — I’d truly appreciate your feedback, especially from experienced VectorStyler users here.

  • @EricP Thanks a lot ! 👍
    It's really cool, especially because I never investigated about repeater, despite its obviously powerful features. ☺

    Great job! 👍
    I learned a few things I didn't know before.

    Since I also enjoy experimenting, simply for the joy of discovery,
    your videos really appeal to me. I'm excited to see what else you
    have in store. ☺

    I will of course recommend your channel.

    @EricP Thanks, we need many many tutorials. VS is very good but quite difficult!

    Wow!
    You're pretty fast.
    I've already seen your second video.
    Really impressive.

    @achillepr
    VectorStyler isn't something you can learn; you can just wander
    around in it and admire the scenery. 🙂

    But joking aside, it will take some time, but the basic things
    aren't that complicated. You can always ask questions; usually
    someone will be able to help.

    @achillepr absolutely ! I'm glad this is helpful for existing users too.
    My goal is to help with the initial learning curve, which took me some time due to limited documentation and resources.

    Once you understand how some of the unique concepts work in the application, things go much faster.

    @Subpath Yes, I just published another video. It took me ages to get to do the first one, but then it's pretty easy. I know you said you don't want to publish your tutorials on YT but maybe you could think about it again:)

    I've thought about this a few times, partly because I keep getting
    asked about it. I can only speak for now, but I consider it still very
    unlikely.

    The video tutorial with operation and voice narration makes it much easier for beginners to understand — great job!

    Since I made the purchase, I’ve recorded over two hundred videos. Most of them were made for friends who bought the software after my recommendation, mainly to solve specific issues. The demo files used in those recordings were provided by the people who asked the questions, so they’re not suitable for public sharing.

    The combination of various features makes VectorStyler incredibly powerful. Even when I encounter some issues, it inspires me to think of many ways to solve them.

    That's exactly one of the reasons why I like VS. The many ways to
    approach a task. I'm quite aware that this can be overwhelming for
    some.

    To them, I can only recommend sticking to what they need or are
    familiar with. I think the basics aren't complicated, sometimes not
    in the way you're used to, but not complicated. Later, they'll really
    appreciate the other possibilities.

    When I started with computer illustration, I came across an article—
    I think it was in (german) Page magazine—titled "Zen in the Art of Illustration."
    The lessons I learned from this article have stayed with me ever
    since and have left a deep impression. I believe the title was derived
    from the book "Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance"

    A simple exercise was to draw a very child like basic house using
    every conceivable tool, and there are countless possibilities.
