Really? I tried in MS Paint and was not able to do it as any white part also moves and covers any black. But, I guess you could do it a single pixel at a time... Good Luck

Actually, I probably did it the hard way (the only way I seem to do things).
I took the image in Photoshop. Added a new layer. Filled it with a pattern fill that was like a scanline. Black line, white line, black line, white line...etc.
I then selected only the black, dropped to the original image layer, cut an pasted it into a new layer. I went back to the pattern fill layer and selected white this time, and went back to the original image layer and cut and pasted it into a new layer. So, by now I have 4 layers. The original layer (which is empty, the first cut&paste layer, the second cut&paste layer, and the pattern fill layer) I deleted the original layer (cause it's empty), and the pattern fill layer (cause I didn't need it any longer). I then shifted the seperate layers around until they looked like words.
I had to flip them vertically and horizontally a few times to get them to match up.
I realize that most of what I did was redundant, but hey, whatever works for me. I think in strange patterns sometimes.
later.
