Post by 63cagedfalcon »

Why are my pics going sideways?
Preview is sideways, click & sometimes correct other times sideways.
Taken with phone but in correct orientation.

Reduce the size of your pictures. I use just a plain old smart phone with an 8 megapixel camera. I edit the size by 50% using Microsoft paint. (Very simple) Right click your pic, and choose edit. It should open in paint. Reduce the size and save it as a JPEG. Hope that helps.

Most phones default orientation is horizontal with button on the right. When you hold phone vertical too expensive speed for phone to rotate all pixels, so instead they simply add an orientation attribute to the file.

Most modern display apps such as Photoshop, Paint, even Windows Explorer will look for this atttibute and do real pixel rotation. This when looking on computer, edit, save, it's gets saved in correct orientation.

This website does not honor orientation stored in the JPG/PNG and just displays raw. When you zoom and display just the image, your browser is doing the rotation for display

I’m no expert and I’m sure all phone
Types are different but with my iPhone the home button needs to be on the right. After taking the pic go to camera and find the pic. Click on edit and you will see a square with two arrows going counterclockwise next to cancel. Click on this image and you will see another square win only one arrow goin counterclockwise. Click on it to turn the picture all the way around (4times) then the done button on the right hand side will turn yellow. If it doesn’t turn yellow you have to slightly resize the picture then click the yellow done and your pic will display correctly.
Interested in all flat and Cone Soda and Water cans.
