    No, not at all. Let's just keep it about Decorative Drop Caps examples

    Are you interested in Egyptian hieroglyphics as I am Frank? Interesting that you found your drop cap there. Now I guess you have to make your own.

    I have always found them immensely intriguing and very attractive. If only I didn't workl for a living I would definitely take up the study of hierowhatsits.

    OK, I was just kidding. Surely you aren't so old that you drew that on the wall so long ago and just now re-discovered it. Just think how many archaeologists have seen that very nice drop cap.

    I have been working on another one. Don't be too hard on me for this one because I kind of like it, although I may put some veins in the leaves.
