I've searched Kirupa's forums.
I've searched the WhatFont? forums.
I've searched a random font related forum, the name of which I have forgotten.
I've uploaded an image of the font on WhatFont?.
I've done the little questionnaire thingy on WhatFont?.

And I've gotten nowhere. :d:

Now, since this is my favourite forum, I'm asking for help.

Does anyone know the name of this font?

You can seee more of it on www.lounge72.com (http://www.lounge72.com). Also why is it so difficult to find?

Thanks C:-)

It is possible that they made it.

At first it looked like Arial Narrow but I now see the differences.

If you took Tunga and condensed it, that would be very close.

But I don't have anything exactly like it.

DIN family should've easily been found.

I thought DIN too at first but if you look at the ends of the Cs you can see it's not the same font.

Here's the closest match in the DIN family for comparison.

DIN + ME = :love:

I think it is DIN as well, maybe with a slight widening to the font.

It's definitely a different shape fellers.

Don't get me wrong though, I :love: DIN as much as the next guy.

Nope. It costs $32 for each weight (http://www.fonts.com/findfonts/detail.htm?pid=204778&grab_id=0&page_id=20423&query=Conduit&SCOPE=Fonts).

You make one then.

Designing a font is the same as any other kind of design work. Why shouldn't they get paid?

They can get paid thats fine, but I think it is a little overpriced for non-commercial users.

The designer still needs to make a profit no matter who the customer is.
