Rotating images

January 14th, 2011
I've uploaded several pictures which the site doesn't seem to like in their original orientation - mostly ones that are taken vertically on my iPhone.

Does the site only upload horizontal images or is there a simple way to rotate images that have been uploaded?

I've tried rotating them first and then uploading, but that doesn't work either.

Thanks

search in the search box... this has come up before... cannot remember how/why it happens to some people. Email Ross if nothing else seems to work.

Ah yes... the suggestion is to get the 'ace' membership which lets you use picnic to edit them... but it doesn't make sense that you should have to re-rotate them. After you rotate them are you saving them so that the image is changed?

"Crop Suey" is a nice iPhone app that allows you to crop (obviously), rotate and resize images. But you said that you had already tried rotating the pics first. I'm with Jordan- did you save the rotated pics?

I have a photo rotating app on my iPhone, which allows me to save the image and then save it - before I then upload it on this site. So I can't understand why it doesn't like the orientation however I try it.

Thanks for your suggestions and help though - sounds like I may just have to give up on the site.

I'm not big on iPhones. If it means anything, you can save (or not) the image to a computer, and rotate it in Picnik, Photoshop, Paint, a Windows picture veiwer etc. etc. etc.

@simongosney . Hi Simone when I went to your album and looked at your photos I Couldn't see any that needed to be rotated.. did you sort it out or is it just showing up rotated on your phone?

I have the same problem. I want to be able to snap a shot and email it straight to 365 with my iPhone. But I don't like the sideways shots. Let me know what you find out.

I've deleted the pics that won't rotate. I don't know what to try now as I have successfully rotated the images on my iphone, and uploaded them without difficulty to other sites - its just this site that rotates them sideways.

@simongosney It's the phone rotator, most apps for both iOS and android don't rotate the photo at the file level, they just tell it what way up they should be in relation to the phone screen. It seems to be down to the fact that they use their own system for saving and displaying on the phone.

save the pictures to your computer and upload them using the basic up loader worked for me.
