Golden State of Mind has a new logo!

Have you visited Golden State of Mind lately? On Friday, January 20th, we unveiled our new logo publicly at GSoM Night 11 and even gave away free tee's to our loyal readers. The credit goes to GSoM contributor Sleepy Freud on the great logo design. Sleepy and I, along with the rest of the GSoM Crew started brainstorming concepts last summer with a handful of great ideas that went into production. By the end of December we narrowed it down to this concept and made a few adjustments that was green lit to be released GSoM Night 11. I love the color combination of the new logo and effective placement of elements. Great job all around!

Photo Recap: GSoM Night 11

Vector art: 49ers Alex Smith

"The Run" by Tony.psd - It wasn't Vernon Davis's "Catch" with 9 seconds left in the 4th vs. the New Orlean Saints that got me hyped, for me - it was QB Alex Smith beasting that run into the end zone that sold me. This guy really wanted to win... Respect.

More Photoshop fun that's going viral amongst 49ers fans via social media sites. Featuring Aldon Smith, Patrick Willis and Justin Smith... "Who you gonna call?"

Jessography's New Tattoo

Back in April of last year I helped my friend Jess with a logo to help brand her company name. She had a playful concept to illustrate a camera with her name wrapped around the camera. Fast forward to the start of 2012 and I find the logo I designed as her new tatto inked by Viet IllusionsCalTattoo. Really good stuff and a first for me to see something I worked on etched for life as a tattoo!

Like Jessography's Facebook Page and check out all the good stuff!

Hype: 49ers humor - avatar designs

First off a big congratulations to the San Francisco 49ers and their big win against the New Orleans Saints this past weekend! In between plays I was on my Powerbook doing some light work and watching the game - everytime a big play happened I did a few humorous quick wordplay designs that went viral on social media sites like Facebook and Tumblr. Just having some fun, I also made a few web avatars of the recent "Nobody - Jim Harbaugh" vector illustration I did for Facebook heads. More fun designs within the week, congrats San Francisco!

New: Coach Jim Harbaugh vector art

"Who's got it better than us? NOBODY!" Coach Jim Harbaugh, 49ers Head Coach.

What a season... and we're in the playoffs! Congrats San Francisco, you guys deserve it! I've heard and seen the "who's got it better..." quote all over the bay area. It's inspiring and fitting to everyone involved in the organization along with it's fans. I've seen the variety in shirt designs and fan related art so I decided to do a little some special on my part and a supportive fan. Going the vector illustration route, I decided to capture the Niners head coach who helped this losing franchise rise back on top. For the look, I wanted to give it that "The army wants you" look but in red and gold. Enjoy and good luck this weekend 49ers!

Revision: Dem-One Mixtape cover

Color Revision for upcoming "Dem One" Mixtape - Red and gold options. The original "black and Gold" concept was no longer an option after Dem pointed out that they were New Orlean Saints colors, lol.

The Forty Niners... Bunch!

Here’s the story… of The 49ers! A little something for my Niners Faithful - Good luck this weekend San Francisco, the Bay Area is reppin' hard this weekend! Red and Gold all day!

First look: Tony.psd's Youtube Channel

It's finally up! If there's one market I have not utilized, it's within youtube - It's another great social media tool that will get me more into doing simple video presentations, etc. and help boost my following. My first video from my Youtube page is nothing special, it's a simple slideshow created in iphoto that showcases my collection of graphic t-shirt designs taken from various photo shoots throughout 2011. Special thanks to STE307 Photography, RichWayDidHeGo, Marc Christopher Photography and BG Concepts. Enjoy!

First Look: Tony.psd Tags

Good news: All of my shirts printed in 2012 will have screen printed Tony.psd labels inside the shirts! Say goodbye to Alstyle tags! It's been a long time coming, the reason why I never had inside tahs was because I didn't have the budget or extra money to do so. Now that we're a full time operation, that's about the change. Also, Ryan over at Breezy Excursion once told me "Every little thing on your shirts counts..." Amen to that!

Featured on TheFreshStock.com

My shirt designs are featured in TheFreshStock.com: a magazine that brings reviews and opinions on today's Culture, Fashion (Clothing), Styles and Art. Thanks for the opportunity, and spreading the word!

First Look: Retro Beat Down by Tony.psd

Here's a first look of a design I was working on today titled "Retro Beat Down." I've always wanted to dive into the whole "&" name drop/list design but couldn't come up with any solid ideas. For me, I grew up playing a lot of 80's "Beat em' up" arcade style game because they were easy to play and you can pass certain games in 2-3 hours tops. So I decided to list my favorite fighter games along with 2 that jump started the sub genre. The last thing, I wanted to give it an 80's style typecase to get people curious in reading the shirt. I figure if we're going retro let's bring the block type font back! Release date: Shooting for February.

New toys for my Studio

These were Christmas gifts from my brother Joe during the holidays. What can I say, the guy knew I loved toys. Speaking of which, I recall a conversation with upper management at my old job explaining to me that "Toys were very unprofessional at the work place and it was also a distraction to others..." I never played with em', if anything I always thought they looked cool at my desk. I actually agreed with them at some point and emptied out my cubicle. Last May when I visited my brothers workplace at Microsoft's gaming studio - I gotta say, they had more toys in that building than a Toys R' Us! It made them happy within their hectic work environment. Than again, at my old job a lot of my co-workers were in their mid 40's - late 50's so I can see where the opinions differed. Moral of the story - these are f*cking awesome and will be displayed all over my studio, lol.
