    A link to an URL shortener? On meta? Let me fix that for you before destruction comes from the heavens. Commented Oct 21, 2013 at 13:24

    +1 for coming to Meta and trying to learn proper StackOverflow etiquette instead of just storming off in frustration. It's sad that questions like this, where people are legitimately trying to learn and improve, receive negative reinforcement. Commented Oct 21, 2013 at 14:00
  • @kajacx, are you saying that the site would not let you post your question? Did you get a specific message? At first glance this read as if you received comments from users regarding your question. If the former is the case, then please tell us what the exact message was as well. But as for an answer, I guess Kate's remarks cover everything just fine. Commented Oct 21, 2013 at 14:06

    With the detail in your SO question I can only assume it is a duplicate of this (which is the very first result in Google). Maybe it's not, but how could I know when not seeing what you tried to actually rotate the text? Showing how to draw horizontal text is indeed not useful. (Weird, my earlier same comment disappeared.) Commented Oct 21, 2013 at 14:29
