If you are, for whatever reason, looking for a graffiti-style font, maybe to lend a little street cred to something you’re working on, please, please, please don’t go to a free font site and download typefaces with names like Graffonti, Street Soul, Graffiti, and definitely not Degrassi or Graff Pity. You want the real deal [...]

Today’s siteseeing excursion takes us to Oakland to visit Grain Edit, a site I’ve only just recently come across, but instantly fell in love with. In their own words, “Grain edit is focused on classic design work from the 1950s-1970s and contemporary designers that draw inspiration from that time period.” Check out the awesome front [...]

Chris is one of those guys (like Jeff Hamada of Booooooom fame) who makes aging types like myself feel completely unproductive and totally unsuccessful. I’m reasonably sure he can’t legally order a beer in a bar yet, but that hasn’t stopped him from doing sales for some major brands in the clothing game, and he [...]

I could look at this website for days. There are a few sites that document reggae label art but this one might be the best-looking one. I’m not usually a fan of flash sites but this one is great.

Warning: Do not visit Abduzeedo if you value your spare time! I’ve already lost several entire weekends exploring this blog by Brazilian designer Fabio Sasso. Everything is in English, and the site features design and photography related tips, tutorials, inspiration, not to mention examples of incredible work too. You don’t want to get into this, trust [...]

MR44 is my buddy, and one hell of an artist. He’s one of the most artistically gifted people I’ve ever met, not to mention one of the coolest people in LA. He does almost all his work by hand – somewhat of a rarity in our industry in this day and age. He’s best known [...]

Ok, so the likelihood that you’ve found my blog, but somehow never heard of The Hundreds, is slim to say the least. Ridiculously close to impossible, even. Still, to do a blog about blogs and not blog about The Hundreds is avoiding the massive florescent pink elephant in the room, don’t you think? DG picked [...]

In part, I wanted this blog to be a source for what I consider to be some very, very good websites out there, and Booooooom is definitely one of them. Run by Canadian designer Jeff Hamada, it’s a highly successful and very heavily visited website on art, design, film, photography, music and more. Check it [...]

One of my goals for this blog is to highlight one exceptional/useful/crucial/handy/fun website each and every day. We’ll just have to see how realistic that is. That said, and without boring you with my politics, the first website I’m posting on is Design For Obama, which houses an incredible collection of poster art designs centered [...]
