    On the website insomniac.com, the logo "insomniac" what font is that? I've tried taking a screen shot and using whatthefont.com but the choices it gives me aren't 100% spot on. Does anyone have an idea?

    Also try http://www.whatfontis.com/ and http://www.identifont.com/ . Looking at that font, I'd put money on it being custom made/identified. The c is probably just an adapted o for style.

    It is similar to Red Rooster's Harry Heavy.

    How do I go about doing that?

    If you've got a Windows machine handy (IANAL but I think you need a Vista licence in order to legally use the Consolas font), copy the file somewhere convenient.

    Then in a terminal:

    sudo cp *.ttf /usr/local/share/fonts
cd /usr/local/share/fonts
sudo chown root:root *.ttf
sudo fc-cache
