The logo is a reversed h? You can always email the image to me and I can upload this picture if you have a problem.

James you really need to be more polite to new members- you’re tone is repellant and inappropriate. :-/

mdsinister91> Hello and welcome to Typophile. Sorry about James. My scanner is doesn’t even work with my mac so I can totally understand what your gong through. When you do get it to scan the image, make sure the file name does not have any spaces and its in JPG PNG or GIF formats.

Be sure to read this page on how to upload an image:

The upside-down h = µ ? In which case it’s the greek letter Mu - [Wikipedia entry]

Here are four letters that look like a reversed h:

uni0265 is “latin small letter turned H”. uni03BC is “greek small letter mu”. uni0427 is “cyrillic capital letter che” and uni0447 is “cyrillic small letter che”, and there may be others. The above font is Gentium.

It’s a stretch, but there are also a few Armenian letters that kind of look like a or upside-down ’h’ if you tilt your head and squint a little.

What I see is the famous web 5-letter ligature from the font Georgia by Matthew Carter.

There seems to be another problem with the file “forever 001.jpg” itself, because even if I download it with wget or curl, I can’t open it.

As an aside to this, I’d like to add that the ’insert image’ button is rather easy to miss. I wonder if others have felt so, but I’ve often wished that link were a little more prominent.
