Font, what's a font?

Have you ever come across some really cool text and you wished you knew what it was; well now you can. If your like me and have had to reproduce something and needed to use a text that you were not familiar with then I offer you a solution. There is this great web-site that allows you to upload an image file and then it presents you with comparable fonts. It isn't always the most accurate and depends greatly on the resolution of your image, but I promise you that it works; I have used it. Sometimes the site will direct you to a pay site for your font but with a little determination, you can search for the font and hopefully find it on a freeware site. Searching for the font, again, does not always result in felicitous circumstances. But to all of you that are in need of such a tool here it is:
