How do I pay?
In order to provide the best turnaround and avoid dead orders I must be paid at least a 50% deposit of the final order. I give discounts on volume orders (more than one item) when they are paid for up front. Also turnaround time is faster when a client pays a full deposit upfont.
PAYPAL is the easiest way (especially if you live out of town).

Official Grafx

Flash Profile Full Payment $200.00     Flash Profile Half Deposit $100.00     Basic Profile Full Payment $125.00

If you can meet me in Vallejo or Sac then CASH is good also. If you don't have a paypal account already, you can pay them with credit card or check (check takes longer to clear). I also take checks or money orders in the mail, but please make it your last resort because they take the longest to process.

What's the turnaround? How soon will I get my graphics back?
The sooner I get the deposit, the sooner it gets done. I have a workload list (SEEN BELOW) and the people who have deposited first get their work done first.



First come, first serve. My turnaround time varies due to how busy I am with the orders I have on my list. USUALLY, turnaround is around 1-2 weeks from your deposit payment, depending on my workload and how much work is involved in your project. If time is a concern, ask for my current turnaround time.

So now I paid the deposit, how do we get started?
Once the deposit comes in email me the CONCEPT and PICTURES to tyrantdadon@yahoo.com. The concept includes a description of what pictures you would like where, the style you want (artistic, hood, etc…), the colors you want and any other preferences you have. Be as specific as you can because it is easier for me to match your vision with more info. I will send you a PREVIEW of the main piece of the work order and once it's approved, I will finish designing the rest of the order.

Once I am finished, you send me your login information myspace EMAIL and PASSWORD so I can upload the profile and make the necessary adjustments.
NOW GET OFFICIAL!!!

DON'T SLEEP ON R-LES!!

http://media.www.statehornet.com/media/storage/paper1146/news/2009/02/11/Features/Rb.Artist.Ryan.Leslie.Steps.Out-3622557.shtml

After his first album "Just Right" became a bootlegging casualty in
2003, Ryan Leslie is now ready for the limelight with his first album,
self-titled, "Ryan Leslie." Universal Records scrapped the U.S. release
of "Just Right" after the album was leaked onto the Internet months
before its release date, and the label sent Leslie back into the studio.



Calling Leslie a new artist is an understatement. Leslie is no rookie
in the music industry and has spent the last few years producing for
mainstream artists including Cassie, Beyoncé, and Britney Spears to
name a few.



Similar to Ne-Yo, Leslie also started his career song-writing for
artists and his many talents make him a "one-stop shop" for making a
hit record. His first break into the mainstream music scene came with
Cassie's "Me & U," which he wrote and produced, peaking at No. 3 on
the Billboard Hot 100.



The album kicks off with the first single "Diamond Girl" which slipped
in the U.S. Billboard Hot 100 at No. 95 with its heavily-synthesized,
retro sound. Leslie compares love to the finer things in life with,
"You're my diamond girl/You're the one, I put the rock on/You're my
diamond girl/You're one that I quit the game for."



Like many of Leslie's tracks, "Diamond Girl" strays away from the
generic, formulaic sound of most popular radio tunes of today and its
infectiously catchy chorus demands attention. The "R-Les" signature
sound consists of electro-R&B, which is always full of feel-good
energy and accompanies catchy, love-driven lyrics.



Leslie keeps the energy flowing with "Quicksand" which gives off an
up-tempo vibe reminiscent of the early work of The Neptunes with its
clean guitar chords, funky synths and smooth electric piano.



Leslie feels as if he's stuck in quicksand from a woman's allure as he
sings, "She's incomparable/She's a 10/and she plays with all the silly
hearts of men…"



My favorite track on the album emerges in "I-R-I-N-A" which chronicles
his appreciation for a Russian fashion model named Irina Sheik. At
first listen, it sounds like another love song, but it's actually a
more platonic dedication to the opposite sex.



"I-R-I-N-A/said I might not speak your language/but I know just what to
say/I-R-I-N-A/Ooh, I wanna see you everyday." The track's simple piano
chords evolve into a mirage of synths and strings that carry the song
and speak for themselves after the lyrics fade away.



The song is actually inspired from Sheik's words of encouragement
during his "Diamond Girl" video shoot. Going through a difficult part
in his love life, Leslie says on his YouTube channel that all it takes
is one person to stay "I'm diggin' you" to turn his life around.



"The song's not sexual," says Leslie. "The word 'love' doesn't appear once."



Leslie then throws us a curveball with "Gibberish," the last track on
the album. The track starts out like another love ballad with
unaccompanied piano chords. Leslie then brings in a jumble of gibberish
like the title suggests, which sounds immediately like the recently
auto-tune intoxicated Lil' Wayne.



As a producer myself, my initial reaction to the track was, "How did
this incomplete reference track make the album?" As a reviewer
satisfied with the album until this point, my other reaction was, "OK,
I found the kryptonite on the album. Now I have something to criticize."



But as I listened to it more and more, the unintelligible words and
syllables started to grow on me even though Leslie probably had a
better chance understanding Irina's French than I had understanding
Ryan's mumblings.



Even though I feel the freestyled segments and sounds downplay Leslie's
songwriting skills, Leslie just made it sound so damn good. I then
realized that it takes true talent to make nonsense sound that good. Is
"Gibberish" a mockery of the current state of the auto-tune infested
radio dominated by T-Pain, Lil' Wayne, and Kanye West?



Music was always his passion. Growing up in Stockton, Calif, Leslie's
parents insisted that he graduate from college before pursuing a career
in music. So at the age of 15, Leslie dropped out of high school to
attend Harvard University where he would graduate with a degree in
government economics at the age of 19.



Boasting a perfect 1600 SAT score while achieving a degree from Harvard
at such an early age shows that Leslie truly has an intellectual edge
over most musicians.



Overall, the album was everything a R-Les fan would expect from him while new listeners can expect a brand new sound of R&B.



The album proves that Leslie is ready to be noticed as an artist in
addition to a producer and songwriter. Timbaland may have an edge over
Leslie beat-wise with his 2007 release, "Shock Value," but Leslie's
singing and songwriting simply overpower Timbaland's occasional vocal
contributions of a verse or hook.



The album's only shortcoming is its 12-song length. Of course, one can
argue that more tracks would lead to filler tracks, but a few bonus
tracks like the unreleased song "Rock U" could have made the album a
bit more dynamic.



The multi-talented singer/producer/songwriter is a rarity in current
times where labels are shopping for the next ringtone instead of true
talent. Leslie is a true all-around artist and exhibits the widest
range of talents since Alicia Keys.



Also, by posting new videos nearly every day on YouTube or
Ryanleslie.com, Leslie has a stronger connection to his following than
most artists. Fans and aspiring artists can get a behind-the-scenes
look at the music industry and even view studio footage of him creating
nearly half of the songs featured on the album.



Leslie is currently working with Usher and his self-titled debut "Ryan
Leslie" is only a preview of what he has in store to revive modern
R&B.

Is it even possible for small local bands to make money? Hear local band Sterling Way explain their common cash dilemma. We also talk side projects. Why are they formed, and do they cheapen the main bands?

Sac in Stereo No. 2 - Is music more accessible in this generation?

Feb. 27, 2008 - Is it easier to start a band now than it was in our parents' generation? Sure, instruments and instruction are easier to find, but is it flooding the market with crappy bands? Is that a bad thing? How can new bands/artists stand out above the crowd? Also, who are the worst artists to get record deals after YouTube postings? Is it actually a good place to showcase talent?

Sac In Stereo No. 3 - The worst albums from our favorite artists

March 6, 2008 - On this week's episode, we give our picks for the worst albums from bands and musicians we love. Find out which of our favorites we tear apart.

Sac in Stereo No. 4 - The top artists to watch for in 2008

March 13, 2008 - This week we make 11 picks for up-and-coming artists to watch for in 2008. The music industry is changing in profound ways, and we discuss the directions in which (we think) music will move. Some of our picks include Clyde Carson, American Steel, The Maine, Digitalism and more.

Sac in Stereo No. 5 - Guilty pleasures from the CD bin

March 20, 2008 - First, in music news: Former New York Gov. Elliot Spitzer's infamous call girl has a fledging music career - does this scandal spell success for her? Also in news: The Warped Tour lineup has been announced - are any of the bands worth watching? This week, our hosts' street credibility goes out the window as we reveal the CDs we're ashamed to love. Find out who loves cheesy "gangsta" rap, who loves Sean Paul and hear a surprising debate between Ashlee Simpson's new and old material.

Sac in Stereo No. 7 - The most overrated artists

April 10, 2008 - This week in music news: Kayne West has opened an online travel site ... for some reason. A well-known crunk rapper has started a wine label, and iTunes has become the No. 1 seller of music in the United States. On this week's episode, we run through the most overrated bands of our time. If you like Radiohead, M.I.A., Amy Winehouse or the Killers, you may have bought into the hype. Listen to find out who else made the list.

Sac in Stereo No. 8 - The state of the Sacramento scene (with KWOD's Andy Hawk)

April 17, 2008 - Sacramento State has lots of concerts and events, but could they be better? Should UNIQUE, the group that brings bands to campus, be following a different business model? And sure, Sacramento has tons of talented bands and some good venues, but what's missing? Why aren't the two meshing to create the ideal local music scene?

Sac in Stereo No. 9 - Hip-hop meets rock culture; interview and freestlye with rapper D.Willz

April 24, 2008 - This week, we review the trainwreck of a cover album that is "Punk Goes Crunk." Should it be taken seriously, and can any parts of it be enjoyed? We also discuss the convergence of hip-hop and rock cultures among today's youth. What is the cause, and who might be some of the possible role models for people hoping to fit into both cliques? This week, Oakland native and Sacramento State student Darrin Williams (D.Willz) stops by for an interview. While he's here, we threw on a beat and videotaping the resulting freestyle. Click here to view it.

Sac in Stereo No. 10 - Mariah Carey: bigger than the Beatles?

May 1, 2008 - There's lots to discuss in music news this week: The Empire State Building turned pink, purple and white to celebrate Mariah Carey's latest album, and we all turn green in disgust. She's already passed Elvis Presley for the number of No. 1 singles - will she surpass the Beatles? Also, Weezer's new album cover has leaked (click here) - is it a joke? Also, which "Beat it" cover deserves top honors, Fall Out Boy's or Amy Winehouse's?

Sac in Stereo No. 11 - Turntablism v. mashups; Coachella recap

May 8, 2008 - This week in news: I Set My Friends On Fire, the hardcore "band" known for its cover of Soulja Boy's "Crank Dat," was signed to Epitaph Records. Is it the end of music or par for the course? Copy Editor Sarah Kay Hannon is in studio, fresh back from Coachella. Hear her describe the dehydrated festival. How many people did she see pass out, and which headlining act did she fall asleep to? We also decide, once and for all, which takes more skill: turntablism or computer-based mashups.

Sac in Stereo No. 12 - We (almost) interview Kayne, Justin and Amy Winehouse

EDITOR'S NOTE: The parody interviews contained in this podcast are FAKE. We did not actually interview Kayne West, Amy Winehouse or Justin Timberlake.

May 15, 2008 - Working for a college newspaper means almost no one is willing to call you back. This week, our hosts ask the question: What would happen if we had the chance to interview Kayne West, Amy Winehouse and Justin Timberlake? This is how we hope the interviews would go down, and this is what we think they might say. E-mail feedback to podcasts@statehornet.com.

PLUS TY FREESTYLES AT THE END

Sac in Stereo No. 13 - Don't call it a comeback! Should Metallica, AC/DC, Journey and LL Cool J stay or go?

It seems 2008 is the year of the comeback album, as four legendary groups look to make a return to the spotlight. We compare the newest offerings from Metallica, AC/DC, Journey and LL Cool J with their classics to see if the new material stacks up. Send your feedback and comments to podcasts@statehornet.com.

Sac in Stereo No. 14 - Soundtracks for the Obama and McCain campaigns

The Republican party and John McCain have come under fire from artists who don't want their music played at rallies and speeches. Meanwhile, artists who have made music supporting Democratic pick Barack Obama have been criticized by the campaign. The solution? Follow Sac in Stereo's picks for the most and least appropriate songs for each candidate - a guaranteed path to successful rocking in '08.
