Is it still considered a 'figure 8' knot when you dress it so the loop is perpendicular to the rest of the loop?

    Can you post a picture from a different angle? Maybe I am just clumsy, but I failed to dress it in the manner shown.

Yes, regardless of how as you dress it, that is still a figure 8 knot.



It's not going to matter either, because once the knot is weighted, it will be pulled into the same configuration regardless of the angle the loop is dressed to.



In other words, the top picture will look like the bottom once force is applied.
