Title: Can anyone identify this font?
Post by: mlcampbe on January 15, 2009, 02:57:37 pm

I created the below marquee several years ago and now I need to build something to match it. However, I have no idea what font the "arcade classics" is written in nor do I have a clue how I did it.

I know that I used The GIMP to create the thing and I believe that the text was created using some script-fu filter or a GIMP pre-defined filter but I have no idea.

Any thoughts?

Thanks dungbeetle46, I believe you are correct about the font. I do recall the name Excalibur Logotype now that I read it.

Now if I could remember how I created the highlighting and 3D look!!
