nice, though the font has to be mirrored vertically instead of turning it by 180°

Thank u guys fr commenting...
@Bamboori: if u flip it vertically it doesnot come to forizontal pose... it comes only to straight pose.

Well, this mirrored text just looks wrong. IF you make a reflection, you
a) have to flip it, so that the bottom is up
b) ensure the right letter is under the right letter
c) ensure the reflection has a little perspective (means that it looks a little like a trapezoid).
Other than that, nice work
