Any way to correct inverted pics

Post by gnomemeansgnome »

Posted pics here today and they are all upside down. I did fix them off the phone images but they still turn out upside down.

Did you do these on an phone and violate the "rules" for holding the phone right?

You say you fixed them off the phone, not sure what "off the phone" means - on another computer from whence you uploaded them? .If you load one of them onto postimages into a test post does it turn out OK ?
If so, then recreate your original post with the new images & delete the old one ??

Don't do all 7-8 until you try one.

"Rules"? Heheh yeah probably, John. Thing is, they come out right side up on my email and on my flickr page. They can't be knocked down to 800 pixels on my phone so I did them on MS Paint on an old pc that I have edited pics for UAMF for ages, which while rather crappy compared to Photoshop generally turn out all right. Haven't a clue about postimages. Just shoulda used my old Canon :sad: How do I post there to test?

Ha ha! Paul's here all week, folks. Try the tofveal. Anyhoo, much ado about nought, since I took another tack by adjusting the file sizes only and not trying to fix which way the pics were sitting. I posted them seemingly upside down this time, to have them post right side up. Odd, but it worked.

When You take a picture on an iPhone, it doesn't orientate the image data in the file according to which way up you held the phone with respect to landscape or portrait, instead it adds some metadata that it seems only Apple reads to draw the image the right way up. So it looks ok on your phone but not when you put it on you computer.

Jpegs can be rotated by just reordering the data and not recompressing the image, even Windows 10 will do this for you by right clicking on a image.

Thanks, James. Thing is, I didn't have this issue when I took pics of my Panzer I so it was a bit of a mystery to me.
