I have submitted 4 fonts to be identified in the last 3 months and I never here back from My Fonts. Is anyone else experiencing this problem? Thought maybe they just don't want to help me!

Send them to me, Rob. My email is johnmoritz@mediacombb.net. I have Find My Font software and I can usually match fonts within a matter of minutes.

Could be a sign the economy is getting better? Folks have less time to do things for free.

Or not.

Below, hope to make up for the above smarta$$ reply....

I think most everybody here would get a lot of use out of "Homage to the Alphabet". I think I paid $40 or thereabouts back in the 80s, when $40 was $40. I'm now on my second copy, after wearing out the first one. Here's a link to Amazon, same book for a buck! No...three exclamation points !!!

It's a couple inches thick, amazingly organized and full fonts for each. Doesn't have every font in the world, but enough to make you grin.

Homage to the Alphabet...Amazon

You'll enjoy. It's like playing with a new sign making toy.

I found a used one for 83 cents!

All the dollar ones are gone. Wonder how that happened in one day? [Rolling On The Floor]

There's still half a dozen for under $6....then the prices jump quite a bit.

I got a box from Amazon a couple days ago, eagerly opened it and found... a CD player! My daughter had ordered it for my son in law. Still waiting for my book.

Book came. Thanks Don.

It reminds me some of the Letraset catalogs I pored over for hours at a time way back when...

Glad to help, David. See why I was happy to pay $40 for it way back when?...and why I was ecstatic to see used copies come up for a buck? It's true that one person's junk is another person's treasure.
