Pics Uploading Upside Down

[miboje]

The title says it all. I have tried again and again to upload my pics, which are NOT upside down, only to have them show up on the forum upside down. How do I fix this? I have uploaded pics before and they didn't show up upside down.

Problem is on your end, try using an app that lets you edit pictures so you can rotate them...

But the pictures are NOT upside down on my end. That's what I don't understand. I have posted other pictures to the forum, and they did not come through upside down.

yeah mine show up sideways. On my end they are normal, but I am sure if I rotate it sideways on my end it will show up normal here.

I just tried to rotate it to be upside down on my computer, then upload again. It's STILL uploading upside down!! WTH?!

...Your PC is from South America??

Sorry, not making fun of 'you'. ...When you rotate an image upside down on your PC, try saving it to a different filename - then make sure to load up the new filename and not the old one. Just for shitz and giggles, try saving an image with the top to either side, as well as another file with the top up - each with its own filename. Then try uploading all 4 files together. If they all show up online the same...well, I'd be looking around for a good Exorcist!

What kind of PC and OS are you using? Maybe there's a setting that makes the software try to automate things for you, so maybe the software can tell its head from a hole in the ground.

Thank you for you suggestions.
I'm using a Lenovo desktop with Windows 10.

I know nothing of Windows 10, other than I don't want it!

Have you tried the 4-angle pic test yet?

My 13 year old son told me.

" you are holding your phone wrong ******, do it this way and it will work."

He was right; I am the ****** for sure.

Next time I will just use the camera and not the phone, then I will not have cockeyed pictures.

....And you're out there saving us from all them bad guys?!?!?

Try this. Go into photoshop or whatever photo editor you use flip the pics or rotate them 180 degrees UL them & see if they come out on this end right. This simple work around might save you a bunch of head banging.

Edit the photo down just a little but in size even if you just crop it. Mine did the same thing on a Mac and by cropping it just a hair it seemed to work for me.

Thank you for the tip. I will try and make sure the phone is turned with the top of the phone to the right when I have to turn the phone on its side.
If I didn't have a crappy old camera, I would probably do just that instead of using my phone.

It's fixed! I saved it to Paint so I could crop it. It showed up upside down. Weird. So I rotated it. Then Paint would not let me crop it. I renamed it, then decided to try to upload it again, and now it's upright. Yay!!
