How to manipulate part of an image


Recommended Posts

For my current build, which I didn't create a build log for......sorry folks......  I am almost done, but need to print the company logo for each side of the stack as well as at the bow of the ship.   I need the interior part mirrored, so it's facing the other way.  The bear always faces forward, so the image below would be on the starboard side of the bow and stack.  I need to rotate the interior only.  I tried it with my previous build, but was unhappy with how it turned out and honestly took more time than it should have.  I can't figure how to do it in paint, and I'm not well versed on this type of software.  Resizing isn't an issue.

 

Suggestions on how to best do this?

Sounds like Gregory is helping you out, but this can easily be done in Microsoft paint (at least the version with windows 10, that is the only one I tried).

- load the image

- click the down arrow under "select" and pick "free-form selection"

- carefully draw a circle around the inner part that you want to modify.  It will show a rectangular selection box, but it has really only selected the part you drew around

- click the down arrow by "rotate" and then click on "flip horizontal".  It should flip that selected inner circle so the bear is facing the other way.

Thanks for that..  I was trying to figure out how to do that but wasn't aware of the free form selection..

 

I did manage to get the work done with Photo Shop Elements..
