Hi folx!
Happy New Year to all of u.
I've been trying to create my own sig size portrait and it sure took
some time. Started out with a copy of Arjan Kenter's (ak) portrait
as a template, just to get an idea of how to do it and worked my way
from there.
So, here are my results 4 u 2 judge. Opinions please!

For the rest I think the 4 line picture is your best. Put a space between your face your initials, its kind of crowded.
