Playing with Typography

I have mentioned it before that I just love typography.  I love the art of it.  Fonts and all the different types of typography out there can really set the mood of a design.  I keep seeing all these really cool pictures created with nothing but type.  I thought to myself that I would like to try this.  I decided to make a portrait with typography.  I've seen some really cool one out there and thought that I could try this.  The other night I spent about 3 to 4 hours doing a self portrait.  I thought the hardest part would be coming up with all the words to make it out of.  I was wrong.  I did it, but it just doesn't look as great as the others that I have seen out there.  I don't know how to really fix it.  I think the picture I chose to do it from just wasn't' the right kind.  I don't know.  Well, here it is, let me know what you think......
