Making Ambigrams

Saturday, August 05, 2006



Lately about 2-3 days, I've been crazy about this ambigrams thing :P Well, honestly, i began the interest in ambigrams since i read Dan Brown's Angel and Demons, in his book, Mr. Brown put some very unique ambigrams words. The looks of the words, captivates my soul immediately ! WOW ! This is soooo amaaaziiing !! (Yeah, that's me at that time :P) Hm.. well but as always, it wasn't last long though :PAfter severals months later, i'm completely forgot bout that thing.




Just until a week ago, when i browse through the internet, i found this marvelous site, which is apparently the site of the one behind the art of ambigrams which appears in Dan Brown's books ! The person is Mr. John Langdon ;) you should visit his marvelous site ! It's a must ! Even just for a one stop by ;) Well, at his site, i found some tips and tricks that encourage me to learn and do my own ambigrams :P so, as the results of some lazy practicing (only when in good mood i practice the tips from Mr. John :P) i came up with these :D Hm.. maybe i'm gonna continue on practicing this ambigrams, maybe not :P but for now, this is my best shots :P And thus, i'm waitin' for some comments or critics or whatever bout my work :P hehehe ... thx a lot boyz and gurlz :D

Hey....I've been surfing the internet about ambigrams and my friend and I were wondering if you could make one that says, "LIVE TO LOVE" and then upside down reads, "LOVE TO LIVE". Just wondering. Thanks.
