Font Quest!! [completed succesfully!]

Greetings y'all.

I put together some mockups for a friend of the family quite a few months back. He finally came back 'round wanting to pick up where we left off.

Here's the rub;

The development files were on my laptop; which blew up a few months ago. I was able to hook up the laptop HD to my current rig and was able to get the mockups! But not the development files

The PSD folder in the directory was kaput! I have scoured the web, my hard-drive, the fonts directory on the laptop HD, and my sanity all to no avail. I cannot remember the font I used.

That's where you, the good people of AGS, come in!

Here's the font:

If any of you recognize it and/or find it on the web I'd be eternally grateful! I might even bake you some cookies (shouldn't they be called bakies?)

Anyway... thanks for any/all help!

Is your own medicine as delicious now that you have tasted it as you claimed it was when you prescribed it!? IS IT!?

Back on topic, holy crap, what an awesome idea WhatTheFont is. Thanks for sharing!

Totally adding whathefont to my bookmarks. I hate making up something, then coming back months later to find I forgot what font it was.

That is a very cool site!

Usually, in my development files, I keep notes of all fonts, colors, etc. But the PSDs folder (where I keep all of this) was lost.

It's my own fault really. I should have made more frequent backups.

I went back to the dying hard-drive and was able to locate the font in the partially fragged fonts folder. All good.
