Picasa: flip and rotate the picture - so it'll work

Picasa lets you rotate, flip, and add other cool effects. Sometimes you can even use keyboard shortcuts that make your work easier. In this case, too, there are a few tricks ...

Rotate and flip images in Picasa

You can rotate pictures in two ways, either with a few clicks in the menu or with a key combination:

• First select an image by clicking on it with the left mouse button. Then use the arrow symbols below the picture in the direction in which you want to rotate the photo (see picture).
• Alternatively, you can also press [Ctrl] + [R]: This rotates the photo clockwise in 90-degree increments. To do this, press the [Shift] key to rotate the image in the opposite direction.
• If you want to mirror an image, there is no menu item for it. With the combination [Ctrl] + [Shift] + [H] you can flip a highlighted image horizontally. [Ctrl] + [Shift] + [V] flips the image vertically.

With the program from Google you can achieve even more effects. We'll show you how to change eye color in Picasa.
