What the font?! identifies fonts from images

What the font?!
What the font from My Fonts is a web site designed to help you figure out the name of a font from a JPG file submission. For example, if you want to know what font DLS uses, capture a screen shot of some text, upload it on What the font and see what you find out.

It's pretty simple to use, just upload the image, fill in any missing letters and let the site do the work for you. I submitted several things - some that I knew the font name and some that I didn't - and always got a selection of possibilities.

There is also a forum so that if the online tool can't identify a font, other users can try their hand at it.

So, if you've had your eye on someone else's font and have been wondering what it is, now is your chance to find out.
