Help! Recognize this font?

I made this layout about three years ago on a computer I no longer have (I upgraded): http://breathe-drew.net/danielle/

I love the layout and don't want to change it. I want to add a section to the site though, and so I need to use the exact fonts I used previously to add a menu item. I can't remember the name of the font I used for the capital first letter in each navigation link though! It's also the font of the title "Wings". Help? What's that font called? lol

Have you tried http://whatthefont.com? You can upload an image and it will analyze the font for you.

tried whatthefont with no results
tried another service with no results
it's not on dafont either
and now it's been one hour of looking around

D:

At this point my suggestion would be - what you're looking for is a blackletter/old english font, so you might want to look for something that can pass as this one font. I'm sure there's something similar, I've seen them in my research.

Aw, thanks guys! You didn't have to go through all that trouble, DD. I feel bad now. lol

Your suggestion is probably what I'll have to end up doing... or making a new layout. Sigh. Damn font that fell off the face of the earth.

I had this font too before I had to redo my entire computer years ago Dx

You really don't need to make a new layout though just because you can't figure out which font it is xD
