finding typography art on the web..

[a3dy]

hi, im taking a typography class and my first project is to take a paragraph from my favoriate quote, poem, song, or book and use it in a typography design. no pictures and not too many colors to use. so, all of our artwork is type. i was wondering where is the best place to find some examples? because not sure wat text to use. i was thinkin of bleed it out by linkin park or brain stew by green day, or freak on a leash by korn.

thanks

There are so many styles. If you're thinking more rockstar type, you should maybe look at some of the older '60s and '70s stuff that some of it is based on.
