Red face Typography

Could anyone tell me what font I have used in this picture?
I saved it straight to .png rather than saving a .psd too, so I can't check!
I went through my fonts list and couldn't find the right one.
So if anyone could tell me that would be awesome!
Thanks

Re: Typography

Depending on what your using it for of course.............

Its not the best for an on screen font unless its of a decent size. Its x height and the thin crossbars aint so hot for that purpose either. The bowls are nice though, and it works well in normal and bold.
Heres what I guess I was thinking - that because of the words you have written, I guess it actually will be for your blog, so I had the impression of you using a more contemporary font.

Re: Typography

I'm just using it for my header, so it will be just like that picture, but text rather than an image.
