re: font on gettyimages website ...

Ordinarily, I'd make some wiseacre suggestion that the name of the 
font is INVISIBLE, since that's the image you provided or pointed to ;)

But I took a look at the website, and if you're talking about the one 
they use for most of their titles and text here,

http://imagery.gettyimages.com/GettyLive/main/usa/landing.html

It's Lubalin Graph  (from Elsner&Flake or ITC)

VERY similar, with just some slight differences, is Bitstream's Stymie.

That is CP Company (Bold) by Fabrizio Schiavi

In fact, just found it as an example of the use of Schiavi's fonts on 
his site:

To see the font in detail:

You are the greatest. Thanks again for helpin me out with font and I love the links, his site and font in detail. Who are you? I mean it's just unreal that you were able to find even a guy who designs a font and those links.

:)  I cheated.

There's a website that identifies fonst from uploaded images. It's 
sponsored by MyFonts, and the results can be ... erratic.  In this 
case it happened to be a major commercial font that they sell, so it 
identified it right off the bat.

The site needs a good image, and doesn't work at all if the letters 
touch each other. Occasionally it gives completely off-the-wall results!

I hadn't visited Fabrizio's site in quite a while, so your request 
triggered a visit where serendipity found that your actual text was 
one he's showing off in his portfolio.

      Who are you?




Herb is a tall, slim masked man, in shiny black boots, clingy red tights, and a blue cape emblazoned with a big "H".

Which is why he wears the mask. <lol>

(Sorry Herb. Cheap shot I know. But I just couldn't help myself!)

Actually, Herb is a regular in these forums. Most of the folks you will come across are design or typographic professionals, educators, editors, photographers and others who have used Adobe products for a long time and who enjoy volunteering some time to share their knowledge and experiences with others. The camaraderie ain't bad here either.
