As a prank someone has inverted the colors on my iPhone. Black is white, blue is orange, etc. How do I get my phone back to normal?

Wow, interesting. I wonder what's the real point of this feature though (probably not pranks)...

Inverting the colors helps people with poor eyesight.

There's also a shortcut (disabled by default) to switch between the normal and inverted displays, which is pressing the Home button 3 times in a row.
