Hi domblas, you were speaking about some transfers being mirror-inverted.
I saw the big black flag on the LBM website and it is right on the image. But that means that it would become mirror-inverted if attached to a piece of paper.
But your flag is not inverted.

Now my question: Didn't you attach the transfer to normal paper but use it remaining on the anti-adhesive paper it was on or are the images on the website (and the transfers) actually mirror-inverted but right when attached?

PS: As my arabic is only good enough to recognize the "allahu-akbar", can you say what other transfers have mirror-inverted text?

easy to check, look at their islam flag sheet
http://www.littlebigmenstudios.com/cata ... bc34b72e9a

the green ones are inverted, the big black one is correct... a mix of inverted and correct ones on that sheet.

Yes, but that was not the question. ;)

Again: As the black flag is correct on the sheet, it should inverted after attachment to paper as instructed. Yours is not. Why?
And: What other texts are correct or inverted? I can recognize the allahu-akbar phrase, but could not tell if others were correct or not. For example, take the phrase above the green flag.

Ok, I try again. Sorry, my English might be not that good and my French is even worse.
My point is the following:

Each phrase you read as correct on the sheet will be reversed when you attach it because of the technique of applying. At least when you attach it as instructed.
The black flag reads correct on your miniature AND on the sheet.

This leads to the question if
a) you attached it not as instructed
b) the image of the sheet is reversed on the webshop and in reality it comes with black flag reversed and so, correct when attached
c) your image is mirror-reversed. :D


b) would lead to all flags that are now correct on the image of the sheet to be reversed and vice versa.


The second question were:
Do you know arabic so much that you can tell which phrases are correct or not? I can only identify the phrase "Allahu-akbar" by its shape which is the one on the black flag for example.
I don't know what other phrases on other flags mean and my knowledge of arabic spelling is not good enough to even tell if they are written in correct or reverse order.

If I can get answers to both questions, I can exactly tell Stephen what's wrong with his sheets and maybe he can correct it.
I won't like reversed phrases on my flags. :)

Answer is B! Then, you can guess that those flags that looks inverted on the websheet are also inverted after fixing. E.G. The green one touching the big black one and the blue one down on the sheet, etc etc...
Having said that to the manufacturer, i am still expecting that LBS makes the corrections and propose me a new sheet. Until now they didn't.

My arabic is bad but my wife's one is perfect, so she can translate whatever u need her to translate. Just ask.

Hi, thanks for the answer. Perhaps another inquiry will lead to a correction. ;)
