Mike at DPR shared this with us there so I thought I would share the link here. Place it under GIMP resources since fonts can be considered a resource for GIMP imo. :)

Thanks Lyle. I'm seriously addicted to fancy fonts and this site will probably overload my computer!

Which font is this Graechan (don't feel like perusing all 501 fonts; lol)?

Also, glad you all found some use for these fonts. :)

Lyle, I think it's Monoton.

Monoton
Vernon Adams
SIL Open Font License, 1.1
Monoton is a contemporary take on metalpress fonts like, for example, 'Prisma' (originally designed in 1931 by Rudolf Koch.) Monoton is a pure display webfont designed to be used at font sizes above 30 points. Monoton has been designed to be used freely across the internet by web browsers on desktop computers, laptops and mobile devices.

Took the above result and ran it through some G'MIC presets to create this capcha; don't think an online robot will be able to read it. :)
