[Gimp-user] Mirror Image
Thanks for your help, you guys. This works perfectly. Just what I wanted. You're right tho, not near as pretty as in real life :-) -- Sandi P. (via www.gimpusers.com) ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
Re: [Gimp-user] Mirror Image
I'd do the same procedure, but change one of the steps. 1. Cut your person in half. Keep the selection active. 2. Edit>Copy, then Edit>paste as new (to keep your original preserved. 3. Close the original so as not to do anything "unexpected" with it. 4. In the newly created canvase, duplicate the copied layer, but don't flip it just yet. 5. Now make your canvas 200% bigger in the width (you will need to "break" the little chain icon to the right of the size inputs to do this. Also, choose percent, rather than pixels -- this is in the Image>Canvas Size menu). 6. On your copied, flipped layer, Do layer>Layer to image size. 7. Do Layer,>Transform>Flip horizontal. 8. Right click on the layer in the layers dialog and pick Merge down. With this method, you don't have to try to move the flipped layer to match it up with the unflipped one. You can also use this method, with one extra flip before enlarging the canvas, to make nifty CSS rollover buttons. --- On Wed, 2/17/10, Torsten Neuer wrote: From: Torsten Neuer Subject: Re: [Gimp-user] Mirror Image To: gimp-user@lists.xcf.berkeley.edu Date: Wednesday, February 17, 2010, 1:14 PM Am Mittwoch, 17.

I have a photograph with a person cut exactly in half vertically. How can I recreate that person whole? I want to flip the original horizontally, make a copy, and then stitch that flipped copy onto the original. Can anyone give me the process steps for accomplishing this? Thanks!!! -- Sandi P.

[Gimp-user] Mirror Image of text
What I did to solve a problem similar to this (need a vending machine to face the opposite way). I flipped the machine to create a mirror image, and so of course the text was backward on the face of the machine, I then selected the texted by it-self and reflipped it back to the original direction, had to tweak it a little but it looks fine. I can send it to you as before/after if you would to like an example. begin:vcard fn:Christopher Burkahrt n:Burkahrt;Christopher adr;dom:Apt 77;;425 Riverbend Pky ;Athens;GA;30605 email;internet:[EMAIL PROTECTED] tel;cell:404-432-2233 version:2.1 end:vcard ___ Gimp-user mailing list Gimp-user@lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU https://lists.XCF.Berkeley.EDU/mailman/listinfo/gimp-user
