Thanks for answering, Rich. I very much realize I have much to learn to use
Gimp. I have used Photoshop a bit, by getting the free trial a couple of times.
Inverts basic meaning, to turn in, is actually very similar to flip, the
movement can be horizontal or vertical, e.g. to invert a series of numbers is to
put them in the opposite order. If there had been any visual difference when I
applied invert, I would have seen I needed something else (why it seems to do
nothing still puzzles me). I do indeed mean to mirror the image. I looked up
flip, saw the next step to take and had success, thanks.

The image I want to extend the background on is complicated — a blacksmith in
front of a large forge. For the image to work, the fire needs to stay the size
it is, while extending everything else. This would enable type to be more easily
read —  around the fire, instead of across it. It looked do-able using LqR.
Thanks for a possible other source. I gathered there is another, more
complicated way to accomplish the feat but LqR appeared pretty simple to use for
this.
