Why are the imported images upside down?

Hi!

I'm back using Tvpaint after a long break, and here's the question: I am importing image sequences but they appear upside down?
Any ideas why?

Or actually they are mirrored/flipped!

Are they already mirrored in the import panel ?

Go to "View" and see if "Flip Horizontally" or "Flip Vertically" are checked and uncheck them.

Yes they were already mirrored in the startup panel.

I imported them and then i flipped horisontally to get it look right. but when I render them out, it's again mirrored. so what to do?

I think your scanner driver/software sets the rotation flags in the tiff file instead of really rotating the image.
Can you try with PNGs (if your software allows it) ?
