There's store called "The Shop" that I saw at the Sawgrass Mall in Florida which uses the font. I have no idea how to post a picture of it here though.

I use Photobucket, it's free.

Re: Non-Sliders Appearances of the Interdimensional Font

So what's the history of this font? Did it exist before Sliders?

Re: Non-Sliders Appearances of the Interdimensional Font

I don't know it's origins but it's stretched, big friendly lettering are appealing even when not on Sliders OP Credits.

The picture of "The Shop" I mentioned above is posted on the Slideheads Facebook page if you want to see it.

"Talented Dutch graphic designer Anthony De Meester created this light, elegant sans serif typeface. Although simplicity is the hallmark of this design, it can be used most effectively where a look of regal elegance is desired.

I was watching season 2, episode 19 of "Young and Hungry" on Netflix earlier today, and Sophia was wearing a t-shirt with the words "Soul Spin" in the Sliders font on the front of the shirt.

I'm pretty sure it's on the car, Kia SOUL. It's a bit more rounded-out but it looks practically just like it.
