Inversion

Postby Enzo » Fri Jan 26, 2018 6:33 am

I am of course all about the joke, and particularly stupid jokes I can run into the ground. I would like to be able to write upside down for the occasional post to someone in NZ or OZ. Does any way exist to do that?

I figure I could probably type a paragraph, store it as an image, invert the image then post it as an image. But that is a lot of work and also dilutes the result. it won't be simple inverted text.

Is there some simple command that allows the text in teh post box to be upside down?

Remember umop ap!sdn? She wrote upside down all the time, or at least, reasonably close. I'm sure there's a guide out there on the big wide internet to help you out, if you need it.

my first thought was that if some one tried that at the Dope (Straight Dope Message Board, my first home on the net), a rule would be instituted within hours and banning would quickly follow.
