Default Re: Upside down pictures

The forum software tries to read the EXIF headers in the image and rotate it correctly, but it doesn't always get it right. There is some inconsistencies in these headers, especially from Apple devices.

Ideally open and save it in photo editing software such as Paint before uploading. You can also crop and tweak if necessary to improve it, which could be useful. If you have a slower connection it would be worth resizing to suit the forum too, though it will resize the images when uploaded if necessary.

As Graham says, we will correct any we spot. If the ones you have added to a post need rotating and you can't sort it out yourself please repost the post by clicking the red triangle and ask us to help.
