Ambigrams

A few years ago, my friend Kevin Finnegan introduced me to the art of ambigrams--texts or logos that may be read in more than one direction. If you hadn't noticed, my 'Phifa' webpage logo is such an ambigram. Shared below are a few others I've created since (for myself and Jania). To create them, I usually sketch 'em, scan 'em, and use Inkscape (a poor man's open source Adobe Illustrator) to convert them into vector graphics.

Phifa -- I was going to throw this one on a decal for my repainted bikes

Jania/Philip [upside-down] -- had some help with the design from Flipscript's auto amigram generator.
