Thanks to Chrono’s entry Ambigrams & Surveys!, my Ambigram-mania has returned !
First off, what is Ambigram ? Quoting what chrono wrote:
Incase you are wondering what am Ambigram is, it is usually a piece of text in the form of an image, which appears the same way when looked in 2 different ways. Most commonly upside-down and downside-up.
You can also check wikipedia entry.
Ambigrams became famous (again) thanks to Dan Brown’s Angels and Deamons where he used Ambigrams for the cult society called “Illuminati” and the “Illuminati Diamond” [the fusion of the elements, earth, air, fire and water]. The Ambigrams for the novel were created by John Langdon [do you see any similarity here ??].
Well. So after reading the entry by Chrono, I again felt the surge to try something once more. Yeah! Once more. My earlier attemts [years ago when I read the novel for the first time] were, well, disappointing at the best. Not that they are any encouraging right now, but I have got the much needed boost.
Though I am not having the basic tool-of-the-trade, that is some decent font with which I can play. But anyways here is my first shot. The Ambigram of my first name [NEERAJ] created using Photoshop and some damn font provided by windows. So now, I have to find a decent font to work with, to make it more appealing [read more curvy .. Oh! Yeah!!], will update the post with my progress.
Update:
Okay, below is my second trial at creating Ambigram for my first name:
Any suggestion/remarks ? Feel free to give.
