I have developed an unhealthy fascination with ambigrams, to the point of trying to make them myself.

According to the definition an ambigram is: a word or words that can be read in more than one way or from more than a single vantage point, such as both right side up and upside down. (from Latin: ambi=both + gram=letter)...

Pretty much any novice will start with their own name first, so of course that is where I started. See below for my name in all its ambigrammatical glory.

So how do you read it? Hopefully you've been able to read "mikael" from the above scribbles. The trick is now to take the monitor you are reading this on and turn it upside down. If all cables are still plugged into it, you should be able to see that this word reads the same upside down!
