What font did I use?

May 1, 2007 12:40 PM

This'll seem strange to ask...but what font did I use to create my blog's banner?

I created it on my old PC with Fireworks, and now I'm trying to edit it on my Mac (also with Fireworks, but I have Photoshop too, which I'm really bad at using). But Mac doesn't have the font, so it tries to replace it and I don't know what the original is. Help me, oh wizards of the Internet tubes. Link to my blog is in my profile, link to the image is here.

Best answer: Try a typeface called Boopee Regular at http://www.myfonts.com/fonts/typodermic/boopee/regular/

Best answer: I used What The Font and came out with Boopee. (on preview, same as UnclePlayground's suggestion, but you might try What The Font next time you can't figure out what you used)

Looks like Boopee Regular to me. On preview, what they said.

Response by poster: Thanks for the resource! Now I just have to figure out how I got it for free last time...maybe it was just on my computer.

Eh, just pay the ten bucks for the font. You didn't mind paying $5 to ask about a font, after all.

You could easily replicate that look by hand in a graphics program or Flash, if you aren't dealing with a large amount of text.

Response by poster: Yes, mendel, but I also get to ask about beer, relationships, movies, music, and so on. But...I paid for the font.
