Thanks to Alejandro for choosing my ambigram! It's a honor to me, especially if this is the last NAC.
It's kind of sad that this game has to stop, but I understand well Nagfa's reasons... maybe three years ago some of us could dedicate much more time to this kind of things, but it's getting harder. Anyway, I'm really thankful to Nagfa for organizing this contests, they were a gerat experience. If someone starts a new one, please let me know.
Dear Nagfa,
I'm sad for this lasto Official NAC.For alls ambigrams'lovers, it was a pleasant appointment. Is it possible for me, to submit you my works and enclouse them in you website? Don't worry, not frequent.
Salam and Peace for you and you family
Diego Colombo from Italy
Thank you, Homero. I understand it is a bitter sweet victory. Your 'White Rabbit' NAC will be cherished.
