What would Earth's seasons be like if the planet was rotating along a different axis?

Right now the Earth rotates around the y-axis so East and West replace one another. What would the affect be on Earth's seasons if it rotated on either other axis?
The first is the Z axis, pointing from Earth to the sun so that South and North swap places by going through East and West. The second option is the X axis, a tangent on Earth's orbit. This has North and South flipping over the Equator.
