Posting Pictures (upside down)

I have some images of items that I want to auction. They are saved on a disc but are upside down(don't ask). Is there any way to invert these so I can post? I borrowed the camera and it has been returned so I can't re-shoot photos. Any help is greatly appreciated.
Thanks!

    Get a copy of graphic software from Irfan from the web. It's free and lets you do all sorts of editing with it. I've used it for at least 3 years now with no problems.

    One problem you might run into is that when the images are copied off the cd, you will have to change the properties of the files to make changes to them. If that becomes a problem just right click on the file after copying to hard drive, click properties, unclick "Read Only", click on apply, and "OK".

    Don't download any software, just use Paintbrush that comes with windows. Open the file, goto the Edit option, choose select all, goto the Image option, select Flip/Rotate, choose flip verticle and hit ok.

    If you just flip vertical, it will reverse right and left. Try rotating it 180 degrees. If it won't do that, try 90 degrees twice. That's what I do in Microsoft Photo Editor, which came with Office 97.

    Or just choose Flip Vertical, then Choose Flip Horizontal, see easy!

    All you guys are right. Any graphics software, including the simple program that comes with Windows, will rotate a picture 180 degrees. That's the simplest way to "right" an upside-down picture. Unless your buttons make it simpler and quicker to use the flip vertical method, in which case you WILL also have to flip horizontal.

    If you shoot your pictures sideways, so that you can get long items into your shots better, just use the "rotate 90 degrees" command (clockwise, or counterclockwise) to set them upright. Then be sure to Save before you exit each picture. Have a nice day.
