In MS Paint, make sure you uncheck the option 'Draw Opaque' under
'Image', and then draw the left- or right-half of your image. Leave the
rest of the image white. Then select all, copy, and while the copy is
selected, choose Image / Flip-Rotate / Horizontal. That will flip the
'copy' to its own mirror-image. Then you can adjust its position with
the mouse to line up with the other half.
