It's rough around the edges because I had originally cut stuff out of the letter and just quickly put it back together. That's the general shape of the letter A.
I've tried using What TheFont, but that didn't come up with any matches.

Help?

(I wasn't too sure where to put this, so I put it under "other software" seeing as fonts are classed as software.)

Edit: Other useful info - I probably sourced it from Dafont, so I'm going to look around there, and it's almost certainly freeware. Beyond that, I don't remember much else.

Edit 2: Found it!! http://www.dafont.com/sf-transroboti...psize=l&text=A
By the time I got to L, I began doubting that the font exists. I remember doing the original design in MS Paint (shh, I didn't have Photoshop then), and thought perhaps I flipped the bottom bar manually. I was close. I altered the shape of the SF-Transrobotics font.
Thanks for all the help everyone.

Edit 3 (5 months later; 29 January 2011). I found an old PSD with an updated version that I did long before I made this thread. Also found that I'd used a different, but almost identical font. It's Viper Squadron Solid. I'm just updating this because I still come back to it for reference when I need to find it again. Hopefully, that won't be for a long time now, since I'm about to make a vector image out of the logo which should work for me at any size without needing to recreate it

Sorry, no. I just had that one because I used it as part of a design quite a few years ago.

Thanks for your help, I really appreciate it.
I'm looking through them in alphabetical order, still working on A.

Nothing found under Techno - Various.
When I see a similar font I also check other fonts of the artist.

EDIT

Checked W,X,Y,Z .

I've found two that are close: The Transformers font and one called "Back In The USSR". But the names don't ring a bell, so I'm going to keep looking. I'm sure that I'll recognise the name when I see it.

Edit: Got to G - found Gonzales Sans which looks almost perfect except the bar isn't on the baseline and the edges are sharp rather than rounded. I guess I could photoshop those, if I can't find the original font.

Edit 2 - I'm going to list links to similar stuff here, for reference so that I don't have to keep tabs open for them.
