hi guys so one of my frustrations every time i create a costume
icons in canva is i really don't have an option to change the color unless if i use preset
templates or preset icons in canva but what if you want to make your logo changeable
the hacks that i'm going to show with you um will be really helpful if you always use your logo into
the graphics or if you have a custom icons that you use it repeatedly and you want to change it
just like this custom shapes that are built in in canva okay so if you notice in here
like you can change the color of the icons but if you upload a video an image like this one
that feature is really limited and what you can only do is just change the effects add an effects
or filter into your image now how did i make this one dynamically changeable that one so this is the
tutorial that i'm going to show with you we will make your custom icon or your logo dynamically
changeable so the first one is you need to make sure that you have at least a jpeg option
or jpeg version of your logo um it's better if you have a victor version but if you don't have let's
just skip it you can just come up with a png version or a jpeg version and then we will use
photoshop on that this is super useful especially if you have different types of butter a dark
banners and a light banner so what if you want to make your um logo changeable you want it to to
to be easily changeable just like a costume icons in canva so i just realized that those preset
icons in canva are made by made in svg so in this tutorial i'm going to teach you the exact process
or the right process on how to generate and create an svg that um canva will accept or support so if
you are interested in that stay tuned because i will really teach you the step-by-step process so
without further ado let's begin one two three so by the way this is our our um logo so this
is your logo so what you can do i'm gonna copy this one and put it on the other um folder now
right click and then choose this convert to smart object okay you'll see that it is in a
smart object because it has this icon in it there and then after that you use this one or you can
also use the this one the pen tools if you want you really want to to make things smooth but for
now let's just use the magic tools and then i will copy everything i will magic tools everything and
then right click and you choose the make work path okay and let's make the tolerance pixel to one
and then after that you right click and then i'm sorry file and then export path to illustrator
and then let's call this okay now you need to after that we need to go to the illustrator
and then open the file that you just exported okay and then um we need i'm gonna i need to
just adjust the art word so because it's too big so let's just adjust our word for now
and if you notice in here like this is already
victor type so if you change the color um if you want to make adjustment with your
with your logo because sometimes it's not really it doesn't really look good if you rasterize it so
or if you you convert that one if you use the magic tools rather so i will use the pen tools to
to clean it a bit
or adjust this one
choose this one okay
you want to adjust this one a little bit
or you can actually just use the
so i'm going to adjust this for a while i'll pause this and then i'll get back to you once it's done
all right so i already adjusted the vector thing so once you are ready um once you are contented
with your victorized version of your logo then click the file i'm sorry i need to minimize this
photoshop so click the file and then export export as and then we will select svg select svg and i'm
going to call this one green icon so that and then go back to your um canva and we will log in
the win thing and i will use that here and here so you do that one so yeah so this one
is super helpful for us this is super helpful because we always change your logo sometimes
i mean this will really save them a lot of time they gotta thank me on this so for the font it's
still the same so right click but first you need to convert this into path because this is into
this is set into to font face so right click and then convert the shape convert shape by
the way rather so you need to convert it to shape first before converting it to path or
first second would be convert to smart object okay now once it is already in smart object
okay so these are let me check this one so you can really see the design so once
it is already smart object you can start you can use the tools again and convert that or
um similar to the process we did earlier so make a work path that one and then after that um let's um
actually i'm gonna copy this one so copy and then i will add a new file that one and we will move
it like that like that and the process is still the same file and save as path illustrator and
now go back to your um illustrator you open that one and find ai
and you have this stuff in there already so you will also adjust the artwork and
i think this one is already good by the way this is a monster at font but i the wim thing
or the m thing is different on the original monstera that's why i need to convert this into
svg okay and then after that file save us i'm sorry i always forgot this one so
you need to be in in illustrator save us and then svg for that and let's call that
okay and then let's go back to the canva and upload
svg you'll open another one in here you could do that way
so i hope you like that hacks because i it really saved me um time in um looking for an icons that
is not available in canvas especially if if it is our branding icons then that would be
super helpful for for me to um avoid uploading and re-uploading the the images in canva so hit
