Use Paint, man! It's among your accessories in   START ..... ALL PROGRAMS> ACCESSORIES> PAINT. Copy then Paste your flag image into Paint then Copy it in there and flip it, stretch it, wiggle it .... whatever. I love Paint.

In queue:  Tamiya 1/35 Quad Tractor or a scratch build project.

Send an email to ajlafleche@comcast.net. I have a regular swastika flag, as used for air recognition, the more formal one with a black cross in the center with a white circle/black swastika overlay and a balkenkruz in the canton. I actually found a premade 2 sided 48 star US flag. I have these in a Word document and I can resize them or you can do that yourself as you would with any clip art.

All I have is Microsoft Picture Manager, and I don't see a mirror function in it.

 Ajlafleche, would you mind making those up for me? I'd be forever grateful.

   Thanks,

    Chris

I do a Google Image Search. I have never failed to find the flag I need.  To make the double side, use a photo editor, copy and mirror it. Then translate the mirrored copy next to the seam of the original.  You can now fold it around the thread. I glue it together with white glue, mold some wrinkles into it before the glue sets.

Google. For the US flag, place the flag in your photo editor and do a reverse image. You can combine the two images in your editor or import them to Word and resize as needed. I don't know what the reverse of the Nazi flag is like, i.e., if it was printed and could be different or if it was a mirror image, which you sould be able to do in your photo editor and maybe even in Word.

Hey all,

  I'm building a flagpole for a diorama project and need to print some flags. I need US and Nazi WW2 flags, double sided so I can fold them over at the halyard side for symmetry's sake. Anyone know a source for these. Need to be free.

  Thanks,

   Chris
