I might try this out for fun. This sounds like a amazing challenge compounded by my absolute love of typography. Good quote pick too.

Well, the background, is a swimchick texture which I coloured the #e90909. So before anyone says it’s not red, it is, just lightened.
The text has been played with in terms of contrast and stuff. So, yeah. Here it is, entering for fun.
Not that good, but I’m not so good with typography.

In terms of readable, can some text be upside-down but it’s still clear?

I realize mine is simple, extremely simple, but one of the major purposes of typography is to display a message in an effective way. I feel as if keeping it as simple as possible, for this piece at least (and with the restrictions and such) would be the most effective way.

Can the background ONLY be that colour, or can it include others? Same with text?
