Silly, if this is happening, it's because you have the backlight on!
Turn it off, and your screen will no longer be inverted.

I got another question for you. How do I know when my iPod is done charging and is it ok if I just always leave it connected to my iMac when im not using it?
When you have your iPod connected, you will see the little battery indicator cycle through 0 black bars, 1 black bar, 2 black bars, 3 black bars, and 4 black bars, and then it will go back to 0 black bars and repeat the sequence. If it's doing this, then your iPod battery is charging. If the battery indicator is just stopped at 4 black bars even while your iPod is plugged in, then you know that the battery is fully charged.
It's perfectly fine to leave your iPod connected when it's not using it. It might get a little warm, which is normal, but nothing bad will happen to your iPod if you keep it connected all the time.
Oh, one other thing: make sure you do not have the hold switch activated when you hold down the "Menu" and "Play/Pause" buttons for 10 seconds when you are unfreezing your iPod. The hold switch ALWAYS works, no matter if your iPod is frozen or not, so make sure it is not in the on position, or you'll think your iPod is forever frozen.
