    yea all the other shit, I don't care about. I only care about the font of the word "Marines". So far no one has made one that is exactly like it. I might just dissappointly end up choosing the closest one.

    I can move the letters closer to remove the spaces - that's easy.
    I was playing with the "S" trying to get it as close as possible to the
    original (but it wasn't very clean) - so I used [​IMG] to try and be more precise.

    I have a Font editor program and If I have some time I'll edit the
    font I used so it will be a standard font to create the type without having
    to manipulate with paths. :))

    I think the problem is that the font you want is probably a modified font in angle, spacing between letterings and width (probably been compressed) and so no standard font would replicate that. It's very difficult to find the exact font for something like this, there are literally millions of similar fonts to that.

    Perhaps not quite as easy as you had persumed ;)
