The ambigram you've all been waiting for...

            Okay. Maybe not really. Well, anyway, I vaguely remember someone asking for a PtR ambigram. But I took it for a joke because really, Pounding the rock is too long. But some time ago, I started playing around with the letters and finally came up with a decent one.

    I'm posting it here in good faith that you will give credit where credit is due and not pass it off as your own. You might think it's crap or what but I'm a little bit possessive with my artwork. I hope you understand where I'm coming from.

    So here it is. =)

That’s pretty damn cool. Since I didn’t know what an ambigram is I didn’t appreciate what I was looking at for a little while. But, once I got it, I’m damn impressed.

Props

That’s very, very good looking — and quite cool as well.

That is sick

Nice work. IMO the white letters on black look best.

i actually echo ATS, didn’t know what an ambigram was until now…very impressive. i’m partial to the silver (gray) and black.

AWESOMENESS

No, really. I was actually the one that suggested this one, I think. Didn’t think it was possible, but I imagined it would be great to have it. Major kudos to you, carina.

Sure hope this makes it on the site’s design itself somewhere. Sure wouldn’t mind to see that boring “pounding the rock” at the top replaced, if at all possible. Matthew, if you’re reading this…

Rec this post, guys.

we should all spray paint this on trains and stuff…

Screw tagging. Let’s make Powell get drunk and have this tattoo’d on his ass.

chaos... panic... pandemonium... my work here is done.

I’ll provide $50 toward tequila shots in this effort.

very nice. You should really meet with that A&D artist and be like his apprentice or something.

Holy cow, it’s a Stampler sighting.

You seriously have no business on this blog full of wash-outs, deadbeats, metal-heads, and freak-footed circus creatures. Hell even I, the bright spot of rationale within the PtR universe, stared at my screen for hours before just turning the monitor upside down and giggling hysterically. You’re simply too damn talented. These are f’n AWESOME; nice job, Carina.

I’m saving them, but I’ll forever credit you. Plus, it’s too complicated to photoshop out your copyright.

Thanks again for your work, keep up the good stuff…

Thanks for the comments…you all are funny. I just do this for fun. =P Glad you liked it.
