Rotating Photos

Please will someone tell me the secret to uploading photos the right way up.
50% is my best average.
Or to rotating them once they are uploaded?

Don't upload them to the site - it's the same for any BBS. Use a service such as DropBox or Onedrive. If they're the right way up in your local folder they will appear the right way up on the forum.

You can rotate them in the folder on your PC.
Select the file, right click and select rotate clockwise or anti clockwise.
Also check in camera if auto rotate is on or off.

I am using my iPad mini.
Does that complicate things?

If you want to rotate pictures on an iPad mini or any IOS device for that matter you need to download an app called Photoshop Fix.
Having downloaded, open the app and select .....edit photos. Select your photo and then select the crop function at the bottom of the screen. Without cropping your picture you will see two rotate arrows at the bottom of the screen.
Rotate your picture as required and then select Close whereupon you will be asked if you wish to save your picture, save it and it will then appear in your photo album alongside the original.
That's how I do it although I don't doubt it can be done other ways.

Thanks for that, but what I can't understand, is the pictures are the right way up when I view them in my photos on my iPad, but less than 50% of them are right when I post them.
I have tried the rotation in My Gallery on the site but no different??

The sun is shining, I am going out for a drive to give my brain a rest !!!

You could always turn a photo upside down in your album and the post it on here. Might then end up the right way up.
Don't know if it will work but worth a go. Thumbs Up

Could be a couple of things. One depends on the "true" orientation of your iPad when you take a picture on it. Have you ever noticed that sometimes when your iPad is close to, or at, vertical when you take a picture, and you move it into a more comfortable position to view your handywork and the pic promptly rotates itself? If so, make sure your iPad is tilted a couple of degrees down so it doesn't do the auto-rotate thing. Also, check whether you've selected Rotation Lock; if you have this on it can disguise the true orientation of a pic.

Are all your pics the right way up when you view them in the Photos app on your iPad?

Rule out the variables with consistency of orientation - Get into the habit of always taking pics with the iPad held the same way up: landscape whenever possible, with the camera lens upper-left, home button right-hand side.

Finally when viewing your pics in either the Camera app or Photos app, you can do basic editing without using any third-party apps. In the top right-hand corner tap "Edit", you'll then see 5 icons on the left-hand side of the screen. Second icon down is a crop symbol with rotation arrows, tap this and in upper left corner there's an icon which looks like a small white square with a curved arrow over it. Tap this and it rotates the selected pic 90 degrees at a time. Then tap "Done" and you're, err . . . done! 2006MY 4.2 SC

Eureka....

It has taken me longer to get this picture the right way up than it did to modify the Jack Smile

 If it ain't broken, fix it till it is.
