I have been restructuring all my code to be in keeping with good code practices, and updating all old hacks to work properly, since I understand it way better.

But I just noticed don't know for how long, that the Y axis is inverted?

If I drawtext 'text', 50 , -100

it draws it above the X axis, but all negetive Y values should be below

what could I be doing to cause this? I'm not sure there's anything I can do to cause an inversion of drawing coords.

yes the y axis is inverted in computer graphics.
Why are you trying to switch the normal flow of the graph(computer)?

it will give you more problems than it will solve.
