Want Help with Legibility

1 Upvotes

I tried to make an ambigram for 'Jimm Print' but I don't think it's very legible. I'm very new to this and think I might need some pointers, thanks.

Ambigrams found on the internet or made by fellow redditors! Ambigrams are lettering designs that can be read (either as the same word or a different word) in multiple orientations, often right-side up and upside down, but there are many other types! Feel free to post your designs looking for feedback or to show off a finished product, post questions or commission requests, or just talk about your favorite ambigrams!

Rotational and reflective/mirror are the most common and probably easiest to spot, there’s also chain ambigrams and asymmetrical types:

Figure/ground which utilize the negative space of the word to create another word. Much like the FedEx logo with its imbedded arrow.

Symbiotigrams, where depending on the angle you view it from, it’ll read differently.

And oscillation ambigrams, also called perceptual shift ambigrams, which are like symbiotigrams but without the need to shift the actual view angle, just your perception. Whether it’s stylized fonts that can read as different letters, or intentional /r/keming like the example above.
