[MR] Heraldry software question

[Towey, Brian]

As I recall, the Blazon program keeps its critters as individual graphic
files and offers you a list of what's in its directory.  So, you could open
the beast of your choice in a paint program, flip it, and save the sinister
version under a new name.  Then, you should be able to insert it.
