Ever have an image and wish that it was turned in the opposite direction? It's easy to do at Imagemagick!
Here is my image that I'll be working on. Notice her legs are turned to the left.

Go to http://magick.net4tv.com/MagickStudio/scripts/MagickStudio.cgi and click on the "browse" box. Find your image, click on it and then click "open". Now "press to view" and wait for your image to appear.
When it does, click on the "transform" tab up top and wait for the next page. When it appears, put a dot in "flop" and then "press to transform". When the next page comes up, you'll have your new image.
Click on the "output" tab up top. On the next page, if your image is "not" animated - put a dot by "single file". If your image "is" animated - put a dot by "multi-frame file". Now "press to output" and again wait for your image to appear.
Now double click on your image to bring it up on a page by itself and then right click and save to your computer.
Here is the finished image with her legs now turned to the right.

BTW, if your image has any text on it - the words will be backward when you change the direction. You might want to wait and add your text after you change the direction. Or if the image already has text, crop or remove the text and then you can add it back after you switch the direction of the image.
And, if you ever have a need to turn your image upside down - just choose the "flip" option and use the rest of the directions in this tutorial. :hi:
