What if I had to type a sentence? Goodness, I didn't think I would ever finish that one name!
LOL! It would get very busy with the whole sentence spelled out with those cute li'l critters. Try using JUST the first letter with an alphabet critter, and then do the rest of the word in colored text - using the font face "Comic Sans Ms" and a font size of "5", and make the rest of the letters in "bold", like this:
ee how this looks?

By turning OFF the bold, and the font color, face, & size at the end of that sentence, this paragraph is back to the default text.
