What font is used in skitch? I made a logo and slogan for my company in skitch and now would like a graphic artist to tune it up and get it ready for use, and it would be real handy to have that font.

Helvetica? Really? Maybe I don't know much about fonts. It looks very different from Helvetica.

The capital "I" (eye) in Skitch has the horizontal bars at the top and bottom, but these don't appear in Helvetica.

Also, the lower case "i" in Helvetica uses a square dot, whereas the "i" in Skitch uses a round dot.

Helvetica's lower case "g" uses an open tail, where Skitch's "g" is loop-tail.

Etc.

Is it possible Helvetica is not the font used in Skitch? I would really like to find font Skitch uses.
