Sometimes, you just don't get the right perspective on a shot. There are ways that you can fix that using various software. This article will show you how to do it with Gimp.

Steps

1
Open your file in Gimp. Make and save a copy as *.xcf.

Put in the guide lines. On the top and the right of your image, you will see small black arrows. Click near them and drag down two sets of guidelines; two vertical, two horizontal.

Once you have it the way you want it, click on Transform.
