Thread: Help with sideways pictures

For those who are having problems uploading, what appears to be, upright photos, only to find them sideways. (Typically pics taken with a mobile device (i.e., 'smart phone', tablet, etc.)) This "may" help...at least it did for me, 100% of the time.

1.) After you snap the photo, find the "edit" feature on your picture editing program. Now "rotate" the pic 90 degrees (either clockwise or counter-clockwise, it does not matter).

2.) Hit "Save"..."Done"....whatever's your device has.

3.) Close the picture editing program completely.

4.) Re-open the picture editing program.

5.) Select the picture you just rotated and rotate it again to the correct orientation. (I know, I know....it seems redundant, but work with me here.)

Now, when you upload your picture to SRP forums, they 'should' be oriented correctly. I say "should", because while it has worked for me 100% of the time, I only have Apple Devices (iPhone & iPad).

I know it sounds like a pain in the, echem. But hey, please take the extra steps, so we don't have to crank our heads 90 degrees to see your pic.
