Default MS Word Art

Does anyone have or know where I can get artwork using MS Word characters. I'm looking for someone riding a bike, and I just spent the last hour trying to do it myself, to no avail.

Thanks,

I'd look in word under "wingdings" first. I think there's also something in "symbols"

btw- both are in Fonts

You're not looking for MS Word art - there's no such thing. You're looking for ascii art.

edit: some bike specific ones:

One of the guys at my work includes this in his sig. He races motorcycles... can ya tell?

PHP Code:
          ,:%%;,
         %`
    `%
        ;        ;
        %=-       /``
'.
     .%` .%` ...,      `,  /```'
,
   .%`
 ,`  ,%`  %   ,%%%;,/      `    ,;%%%%%%;,
  %;`
 (        ` ,,%%%%%;%%,   ,%;%``        `%)
 %%   
`%%%:...  `     ```:%%%;,`   \         ,;`
%%      ``%,  `````
""""""''`%% ` ,;%;      ;``  %
%;  ,
``,_   `"%,       %``    %%   ,%\        %`
%. /     `#.   `:%;,    `%-    `% ``        %`    .,,
%,`       `%`#     "
%,    `. .%.%,        %          `%@,
 ,;        `
      `%,          `%,     _________,    &@;
 %;       ,#'    
`@,  %;   .:Kk~'   `".___)%%%%%%%/      ;@;
%@%  `;        .   @; %%              `%,%@.             ;@@;
@@@,   `;,    ,;   @;   ..,,,;;;;;;;;;;;'
%@,,            ;@@;
 @@@,.   `
"""`  ,,@;                     %@@%,         .;@@@;
   @@@`
@@@@@@@@%%@''                      %@@%`@@@@@@@@@`@;'
     "":%@@@@%;"'                          
`":%@@@@@@@@@;" 
BTW, there is something called Word Art in MS Word. It's a fairly useless way of putting 'arty' skins on text (rainbows, 3D shadows), etc.
