With a small amount of editing, neuropolitical.ttf (<-edited.. would be great if I could spell s--- correctly once in awhile..) could look very similar...

oh thats the easy part.

What you do is find your fonts folder in the windows folder and just unzip the font and put the file in there. Then you can use the font with just about any app.

If you have that font, John, where can we get copies of it?

A lot of commercial art like that isn't actually a font. Though they are close.

I'm not sure if the "formy" is a font or not, but it should be easy enough to make.
