Anyone know what this font is, or know something that closely resembles it? I have some that are close, but thinner than this font. Thanks.

Have you tried the dafont forum? You can post the image you have of the font and someone will find it. It's worked for my in the past. You will need to open an account there in order to post font image that your looking for.

Good idea Wallace, thanks for the heads up. I have looked there. The font sites can be a bit overwhelming, to say the least.

Completely unrelated to your quest, but it got me to thinking that I no longer had Dark Garden since Ol' Betsy died on me. It's open source and wasn't hard to find. Thanks for jarring my brain (memory). lolol

I think it's a good article, that's spot on when it come to font classification. Then we always have those "wingding" fonts too, which are really not fonts at all.
