Reverse color?... - Scroll Saw Woodworking & Crafts Message Board

I downloaded GIMP. Is there a way to reverse the colors? What I mean is I have a pic that the "object" is white on a black background, and I want to do it black on a white background.
Just starting to play with the program
Thanks!

Hi Paul,

Under the "Colors" menu, choose "invert colors" -- or "value invert" appears to do a similar thing (as long as it's strictly b/w).
