Description of the new feature/enhancement

Some animated gifs have motion on a specific side of the image. When the motion is focused to the right edge of the screen, this tends to work well, but when the motion is on the left side, it may be too much. An option to flip the background would add flexibility in such situations.
Examples:

Proposed technical implementation details (optional)

Add to the profiles.json spec: backgroundImageFlip with options for horizontal and vertical, and the functional code that would implement this feature.

Obvious flattery

Loving the product so far! -Bob
