This font is everywhere
Ever since I play around in Photoshop I installed font after font. Even now in game development I have to find shiny new fonts I could use. But one font always stood out to me:
It began with a card game I developed in ~2008: a Command & Conquer, Tiberium era games inspired 2 player game. I used "Impact" for GDI and Ethnocentric for "The Brotherhood of Nod". Since that project, this font pops out to me everywhere. I´ve seen it on plumbers cars, hairsaloons, chinese takeout menus, greeting cards etc.
The idea of taking photos, when I see it and creating an album with it was in my mind for a long time and here is the perfect place to do that!
from dafont.com: Imagine a typeface that doesn’t just hint at the future—it hurtles towards it. That’s Ethnocentric, a font that embodies the relentless pace of technological advancement and scientific discovery.Allowed

This boardgame doesn´t change anything about the font...
...while this incorporated it way more in the logo design. Still not as good as the examples above though.
I don´t know what´s going on with the "RE" and "ME" there?
Read about the designers here.
Of course, dear onlooker, if you have examples of that font being used, send me a picture or note please! I would be glad to host it here with your credit :)
