Title: Help me find a font...
Post by: edmundito on Fri 13/02/2004 21:52:15
I'm looking for the font used for the 5 Days A stranger logo, which Yahtzee doesn't have anymore and I'm trying to make a higher res version of it.

Here's the logo:

I would appreciate if you checked in your fonts directory and tell me if you have it. Send me a message if you do, or reply to this message.

I have a similar one - the ends are open, rather than closed as yours are. That is, it's hollow, but the ends on an S wouldn't be closed in. I'm gonna email it to you after I post this if it's in your profile. Banjoman Open Bold.

Ah well. I think if you search enough you can find free font databases, you may have luck there. I need to upgrade MS Office and I'll have some more, but that may be a while off since it's such a big download. (LEGAL download, from my Uni, btw)

See if this helps. Probably not that helpful if the font he used is a freeware one but you might find something similar. You might have to cleanup the image in photoshop, position the letters on a line and possibly remove the outlines before using the search.
