Hi Folks, could really do with your help if you wouldnt mind?
Could anyone identify the 2 fonts used in this image please? I'm kind of assuming that the 'Dog Walking' text may have had each individual letter 'skewed' but if we can identify the typeface that would be fantastic.
The smaller text uses a font that im sure i've seen before as i recognise the '&' symbol but I cant remember what its called.
any help would be much appreciated :)
Thanks

"Dog Sitting": you could use Helvetica Neue
"Clarissa's & Dog Walking Services": Hand of Sean (free for personal use only here)

Thank you Ryuk, thats great :) However, I'm having trouble finding Helvetica Neue mate :( Any links for that please?

Ryuk, if you have a problem with what probably just happened, it would be good for dazlia -and everybody watching- to hear it.

I'm sorry hrant but I really don't understand what your mean for this one and the link to Helvetica works perfectly. That's also because of Helvetica (I've seen it everywhere ;) I've been firstly reported as spammer than blacklisted. Everything's working fine now.

Hi Ryuk,
None of those Helvetica fonts will do mate, really sorry to bother you again. They are similar but even the 'black' one isnt quite bold enough.
any other ideas please?

Really if you can't identify Helvetica just go away.

Dick, does it matter whether Kallarsson made those outlines himself or not?

Did he or did he not? You should investigate before making the accusation.

I didn't accuse anybody of anything. I'm just asking your opinion (and I promise not to attack you if we disagree).

Accusation is wrong. Virulent Suggestion is too strong. Innuendo or insinuation are clearly in the ballpark...

Kallarsson is the founder of Font Aid, so I think he's a good guy overall. But he's not here.
I just don't like seeing anybody feeling like they have to hold back an opinion, but of course that's entirely up to you - no pressure.

Hrant, since you know the man, what is your opinion, did Kallarsson make those outlines himself or not? And why did you ask?

I don't want to accuse anybody of anything - I just believe that being honest is often an unselfish act that benefits society.
