Here's mine:

I drew it on a Napkin while having breakfast at The Modern Café in Minneapolis. When drawing your alphabet, keep in mind that it's a pain in the ass if the characters overlap. If they do, you'll have to cut 'em apart later. So I'd recommend keeping each letter separate from the others, and leaving plenty of space between the lines.

I scanned the napkin into Photoshop at 100% (as seen here) at a resolution of 150 pixels per inch. My computer sucks, but if you've got one of them fancy PowerPC's you might want to scan it in at 300 dpi. Whatever. I'm a lo-fi guy.

Next, I'm gonna take it into Streamline to convert it from a grayscale tif to a post-script outline format. Streamline lets you control the detail of your image based on details per inch, so I need to make it bigger to get the detail I want out of it. In Photoshop under "Image: Image Size" I "uprez" the image to about 8.5 inches by 11 inches, at around 150 dpi. The file is now about 2.5 megs and I'm ready to exit Photoshop, so I save it as a grayscale tiff with no compression.
