Uploaded photos rotate - Website Support - International Cannagraphic Magazine Forums

Hey when I upload photos that I had taken from my iphone to my computer everything looks fine. When I upload the photos to icmag the automatically rotate left 90*. I tried to rotate photos 90* to the right before upload and then they still upload to the same position. Any thoughts?
Thanks,
Mr.Doe

I use a photo editor and save my pics as a jpeg. I don't know shit about computers so I'm not aware how this works but it does for me.

Try renaming and saving the image after you rotate it. If you don't, you are just uploading the original image.

Also check the settings on your iphone's camera, there could be some options there.

It's a common problem with mobile phones since everyone now seems to take vertical pics instead of horizontal.

Yes, we highly recommend editing images before uploading. This allows you to crop, color correct, rotate, resize, etc.

You don't need to upload 5mb or bigger images, when 150k is big enough and uploads in a second and doesn't put a load on our server to resize it.

Is there a rotate photo option on the site?

My photos are upright on viewer but after upload they are rotated.

Help..

I've noticed that as well, has something to do with the way the images are converted when uploaded, it seems to ignore the rotation flag that is added by the camera. Easy fix for a PC, just open the image to the size you want it on the screen in some kind of viewer program, then just use the snipping tool to capture the image, and save a jpg. Yes, I know there are much better ways, but this takes no software or computer savvy.

as allready been mentioned, it has nothing to do with the upload but the rotation flag.
you're probably using an iPhone, right?
if you'll transfer the pics to a PC, you'll notice that they'll be rotated exactly the same way as
it happens with the upload.
The easiest way -for PC users- to fix them is to open them with the Windows-Fotogalerie,
rotate and save them before upload.
