One thing I do in Blitz is to copy and flip all relevant images after they have been loaded. That way, you waste memory but not disk space, and you don't have to update two images each time you change a bob.

That way, you just have to add an offset or flip a bit when flipping a bob in the game since all mirrored images have the same offset from the non-flipped one.
