Howdy... I need some help. I would like to make the picture an exact mirror of it's self. I just about went nut's trying to flip and rotate!Is there a simple way?

which way do you want it mirrored? left --> right? top --> bottom?

Cody, which ever way you want to do it you'll need to link all the layers that have the elements you want and then select Edit --> Transform --> Flip Vertical/Horizontal (Ctrl/Cmd +T). DO NOT have your text linked or they will flip too.

Actually...I wanted the main texture to go the same way,,,Then have the lettering reversed...So I linked the needed layers and flipped horizontal. Thanks "retrocity"!!!!

Well it would look kinda silly if I did'nt get it right... Now all I have to do is flop everything around for the pilots right side of the aircraft. Thanks again for your fast response!!!!
