need to edit picture-its sideways

[Kelly lane]

how do you edit photo? my pic uploaded on its side and want to turn it ??

[Jade]

I edit my photos on picnik then upload onto here :)

[Shivam Tomar]

Photoshop, lightroom, Photoshop elements, Corel etc. there are so many to use

For beginners, I recomment Picasso. Very easy. Very quick.

I just figured this out last night. I could either:

1) Use picnik to rotate but it then reduced the size dramatically. Does anyone know why it does this?
2) Or I could go into photoshop elements (scaled down version of photoshop). When I brought the picture up it looked correct. I rotate right and then back left and saved. It would then upload correctly.

I just use picnik. Its easy to use xx

I uploaded a photo [taken on my phone] by emailing through the link suggested. For some reason it came out sideways - is there anyway to fix this?

@tejitoki That happened to me to, and the image is the right way up on my phone.

Most modern phones, especially iPhones, have a built-in EXIF orientation tag in the photo's data. Many older photo software programs have not been updated to utilize this data. Until they do (including this site) results will be haphazard. 365 Project needs to get on this right away; I've had the same issue on my first weeks uploads, and there's no rhyme or reason for this. Some photos taken vertically came through OK, others not. Complete nonsense.

Yep my very first pic has done this and I it looks fine on my Mac before I upload it. Will try opening it in Elements and then reload it and see what happes - thx for the hints

Thanks Glenn @glennsackett - I sent an email to Ross and he quickly replied:

Hi Deana,

That's annoying! I will definitely look in to this.

Thanks
