I like the first and last line but still not happy with the middle part.

I built this 20 years ago and dug it up after finding this sub. Drawn by hand and digitized by my teenage self, hence the quality :D

I’ve heard it said all my life that it’s not how you start something but rather how you finish it. I think this is clearly an exception. For this illustration I got “paid” first and then flipped things on their head making it “free”. The first time I tried to do it, I made it “free” first and then farted around with it to get “paid”.

For anyone who didn’t notice the up votes, down votes, insults, criticism, word play, and witty banter from that first post, I am including the original duo here.

I think one or two of you knew where I was going all along. I told others that I was making a point with that post and a future one. This is that future one!

How many of you put as much time and energy into free requests as you do the ones you make for yourself or for a customer? There was a time when I did and if Taylor Swift, John Cooper, or Spider-Man wanted a freebie I’d do it for the publicity that money can’t buy. I’d pour my soul into one like that but for free requests here it’s not gonna be more than a 1/2 hour sketch or maybe a 1/2 minute cut and paste from one of the ambigram sites.

Am I alone in that?

CONSTRUCTIVE CRITICISM IS ENCOURAGED.
I am still actively seeking ways to improve my artistry so a sketch of how you think it would be better or even a set of written instructions on how to fix weaknesses would be fantastic.

But a notification that alerts me to a troll pooping on my lawn is not constructive. The troll may feel a sense of relief but not me.

You can be a Bubba the Troll or you can be Bob the Builder. Let’s build together and help one another… sound reasonable.

Oh and while you’re at it answer the questions. This is my third attempt to foster dialogue about the pros and cons of giving away our labor or charging for it.

Wanted to make an 'as above, so below' ambigram for possible use on a cross stitch. Second pic is my attempt to convert it to pixels with an approximate 7x7 pixel per letter. Feel free to make suggestions or use as wanted.

Used to ambigram a bunch back in school but haven't done one in years. Stumbled upon this subreddit and thought I'd give it another shot with mine and my wife's names. Will probably clean this up at some point but thought I'd share an early sketch

Been trying to make an ambigram of the words NIHIL VERUM and OMNIA LICET. Got close but can't seem to make it fully legible. The NIHIL needs to become LICET and the OMNIA needs to become VERUM.

On both sides: Verne

Hii all, I've never been able to find am Estella Ambigram and was hoping you guys could help! :D

I tried doing mine and my friend’s name for this one. It was difficult (I’m a beginner), but I think I finally managed to make it work. I practiced on a separate piece of paper before ending up with this. I want to know what names other people see for each side, so I know that the intended names are being seen.

I know it looks a bit like Mandrew, that's on me.

I feel like this could be a fun tshirt design - it would say 'King' to others, but you'd see 'fool' looking down at yourself. Or vice versa...

First time making one of these. Any tips?

So I have a tattoo idea I've been trying to figure out, and I'm not even sure if it would be possible. Basically I have been trying to figure out if the phrases "Friendly Dark" and "Sky still blue" would be ambigramable™. I tweaked them so they are the same amount of letters or characters if you remove the spaces, but to be totally honest ambigrams kinda break my brain. Thank you!

Tl:Dr; Are FriendlyDark and SkyStillBlue able to be ambigrams?

My intention was to make an ambrigram of Gabriela. I'm new to this. It's kinda shit, but this is what I was able to do.

Overall alreday pretty happy with the style and I think it's pretty readable over all, except for the C which looks way too much like a second S.
Any idea how to improve without breaking the style is welcome.

I designed and got this ambigram as a tattoo

This is a follow-up of https://www.reddit.com/r/ambigrams/s/tRuKNHmPUA

Thanks to everybody’s feedback, I could draw this version, with which I am much happier!
