Theres a good chance its not a font. You dont find many letter 'A's like that. not to mention, the A is connected to the Y with a tail, but does not contain a 'tail' where it appears on the word ZUMA.

Yes, just the font i was looking for. I can make the logo and the text but it would obviously be easier if the font could be found. Theres a good chance its not a font.

Hmmm I guessed so much Guess I will have to just make the whole logo. At least it gives me insentive to get back into my photoshop work Thanks for the help anyway

Definately a custom job; for the reasons Rob mentioned. Nice logo either way. What is it? I'd guess it's a surfer clothing company.

luckily the logo isnt super complex, so it shouldnt be TOO hard to get a good vector of it up and running. i'd suggest finding a better (or bigger) base to work on, though.

Notice how some letters are joined? The "MA" and the "AY". That hints that this is custom graphical text and not a font. One can spend countless hours on font search sites without ever finding the result. It can really wear you down. Often I give up and just redraw the damn logo myself.

Agrred. often I spend more time looking for fonts or imagery rather than just recreating it. at least in this case, with so few letters, it'd probably be easier to recreate it
