fancy letters

Want to get the children to cut out letters in their Christian name, using pictorial letters. Don't know the correct name, but each lower case letter has been made into a picture of an object or person. I don't want to buy a book, just want to use the pictures once and wondered if there was a suitable free internet site that might help, please. The picture letters could be coloured in already or remain as outline shapes - I don't mind.

the Z is the fanciest letter IMO.

These are lovely ideas but I was really looking for letters that have transformed into pictures. It's rather hard to explain, but the letter s is made into a snake, for example. Thank you for your ideas though.

This is just what I wanted, thank you. I am having trouble downloading the whole alphabet, but I will work on it.

these are all font filesIt's a font
follow one of the free dinglets links
ie ebd indians
on the next page is another link "indian.zip"
indians.zip
http://desktoppub.about.com/library/fonts/db/i ndian.zip
when you follow that - you'll be asked to open or save
save somewhere safe
follow all three links

each zip file contains a ttf file - ie Edbindia.ttf
install the font on your machine

then in a word processor type the letters you want using a large fontsize
(72=1 inch) so 500 will give a 12cm letter
