Rock, Paper, Shotgun Font?

[Comrade Commissar]

Hello there,

I am currently working on a logo for the unofficial RPS Minecraft Server and need to know which font is used in the RPS logo.

I'd be happy if I could get a quick response.

Nervemind, I found a similar one.
Here, how dou you like the logo?

I think it's just impact, which seems to be what you have used.

[Comrade Commissar]

Nope, I used one called "Nimbus Sans L Condensed".
I needed that nice, smooth "R". (It looks even better when "bold" is not turned on.)

Thanks, though.

Edit:

You're right, it's Impact... Duh.

Logo looks great until I get to community. I understand wanting some contrast with the blocky and almost-monotone stuff, but I think I'd lighten the red to just-above-drying-blood and try a more humanist or scripty/handwritten-esque font. I can't think of a font to use offhand, but dafont.com will have something. Just a thought!

Plus, if you use Impact, which is a web safe font, you can get away with actually using text, rather than an image. Which is rather good for SEO.

Obligatory: COMIC SAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAANS

I don't think it's comic sans.

You should use Helvetica. Doesn't matter what it is-- Helvetica and only Helvetica.

And NOT ARIEL. Or there will be murdering.

But Helvetica is so dulllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllllll, and most PC users don't have it. Helvetica at small px sizes doesn't display well on Windows either.

Welcome to the font snobbery thread! ;)

You should use either comic sans or papyrus.

Tomorrow, other tip about how to make graphic designers lose their minds.

Welcome to the font snobbery thread! ;)

People saying "use Helvetica" is probably the least font snobby thing to say though.

Yeah, but following that up with "NOT ARIAL" in all caps is starting down the road to trouble ;)

It's not dull-- it's CLASSY.

Ooh, a font discussion, I shall now wallow in how banal my life is and put forward the opinon that I like Calibri.

Calibri is quite nice. I've got a soft spot for Gill Sans and Lucida as well.

I find myself using Myriad Pro all the time.
