Creating a mirror image in Picasa

Have you ever worked on a project and

decided that you needed a mirror image

for printing?  Commonly used

for  T-shirt transfers, especially if you

have text in your image.  No one feels like

standing in front of a mirror to read the text

on your T-shirt. 

Good old Photoshop sometimes takes

too long for me to remember how to do

anything, so I use Picasa for the down

and dirty quick stuff, especially on the blog.

tell me what my

For some reason our printer will not print

out a mirror image, or reverse transfer

print.  Great, so after

spending some time on the internet I

learned how easy it is to make a reverse

print.  Open Picasa, choose the image

you wish to reverse, hit Control, Shift H,

or even try Control Shift V. 

H is for horizontal, V is for vertical…now you

know another Picasa trick.

 

I love Picasa…..♥

  4. Hmmmm....I've never tried Picassa....(well, I attempted, but freaked out when it started copying all the gazillion photos I have on my computer and didn't let it go any farther). Might have to give it another shot. Thanks for the info! Smiles & Hugs ~ Robin
