Since then, T26 has become the largest independent source for new and innovative fonts offering a library of over 2000 individual styles comprised of over 600 families.

5inch
Finally, pre-designed, silk-screened blank CDRs, DVDs and trigger cases as unique as the data put on them.
For you recording artists, use 5inch discs as demos of your most recent audio excursions. Designers, artists and photographers use our discs to showcase their portfolios.
Our discs are also ideal for your MP3s, video and multimedia presentations, photo albums, file transfers and data backup.
Each disc is printed in a limited run. (think of it as... "we did to blank discs what Swatch(R) did to watches"). Once the design is gone, it is gone. New designs are printed and posted on a regular basis. We also carry solid color and even "clear" CDRs, DVDRs trigger cases in a variety of styles and colors, disc hubs, various storage items and t-shirts.
Mototype
A comprehensive study and collection of reviews and typographical applications of emblems, motorcycle company logos and motorcycle logos with images, comments, links, motorcycle company information and general interest.
Streets Of Sadness
Many of us are affected by the current financial situation, and for some of us, the first time we’ve had to think about making ends meet. The Streets Of Sadness effort attempts to shed light on those who’ve had it bad for a long time. The signs displayed here tell a heartbreaking story of each individual’s life, all encapsulated into a cheap little cardboard message.
Sadsight
An easy place to vent.
The Founders.

Graphic design, print advertising, logos, catalogs, annual reports, brochures, corporate identities, posters and new media are not the only things we do, but they are some of the things we do best. Whatever the medium, we create marketing messages that people notice and respond to, with a distinctive sense of style and simplicity that stands the test of time.
Founder and principal Carlos Segura, an award-winning designer whose work is well-respected in the local, national and international design communities, brings over two decade of advertising experience with him, being a successful art director for many of the advertising giants such as Young & Rubicam, Ketchum, HCM Marsteller, Bayer Bess Vanderwacker, FCB and BBDO, prior to establishing Segura Inc. in 1991. Despite our size, we are now considered to be one of the top design firms in the nation.
One of our strengths is our ability to give clients the kind of attention they need and deserve. We also believe in building long-term partnerships rather than doing single, quick-turnaround projects. That is how we plan to grow.
