Identifont: Identify a mystery font online
This free tool is wonderful when you see a font you like but don’t know the name. Identifont helps you identify a typeface by answering a series of questions. It’ll even help if you have only a few letters to work with (like a flyer headline).
I’ve used it several times, and the font matches that Identifont proposed have come pretty close to the mark.
Check out the fonts Identifont recommended for the font I used for “Cheapskate Freelancer” in my banner. Pretty close!

How often have you needed a decorative font to create a quick flyer? Looking for just the right style for a new logo?

I love putting my word or phrase into the custom preview box, the searching by theme (cartoon, curly, calligraphy, handwritten…) to find just the right look. Most are free for personal use, and many are just plain free. An awesome resource for any do-it-yourself graphic designer.
