    Ambigrams

    Hello everybody.

    I want to start something, and I hope that people will participate ;-)

    It's about ambigrams(as you figured out from the topic). First of all some information and inspiration:

    What is an Ambigram ?
    One of my favourite webs for ambigrams (Someone remember Dan Brown - Illuminati, Angels and Demons etc.)
    Awesome blog for ambigrams
    Ambigram Gallery

    So if you get inspired - post here your result (thats the purpose of the thread). netter don't tell what you've written, just leave it so we can read(guess) it ;-)

    And I think I will be the person to start this:



    Have fun !!!
    The best design decisions are simple, because they don't contain elements that are not necessary... and contain the necessary elements in a way that looks logical...

    No one interested or inspired ? ;-)
    I thought this could be a nice thread with beautiful ambigrams...

    Little response could be because there was a discussion about ambigrams just a few months ago.

    I find them quite stimulating and inspired at times. My favorite is on a doormat. It says "come in" from one direction and "go away" from the other! That might not technically be an ambigram, but uses the same techniques. Plus it's functional and witty. Bonus.

    Anyway, here's the thread I meantioned: Anyone else like ambigrams?
    Blessings,
    Nancy

    Yeah I thought there might be a thread for ambigrams, but the search engine kept giving me error so I could not check.

    But actually the previous thread is different from what I wanted to start. I just gave some links for tutorials and info, the main point was to make you people DO an ambigram and show it, so we can comment etc. For example I really had a lot of fun making the example in the first post, too bad it just got a little unreadable.... which reminds me asking - Can anybody read it ? ;-) Give your suggestions.

    I really like the "come in / go away' doormat too. I am attaching it so everyone can see...

    Ambigrams, are sweet and I have always wanted to learn about how to create one since they seem so hard to make, just wanted to say thanks for this post and the info.
