June, if you load your images into Microsoft paint then save them, they will post correctly.

Samsung Galaxy Note? The phones are the source of the "glitch". You might try one of the photo editors for Android. Load, rotate 90° clockwise, save.

The phpBB operators have been looking for way to handle the phone "glitch" for ~six years. If Matt comes up with a solution he will be a Hack Hero. :wink:

I was going to manually rotate the photos in her travel thread... but I've found about 166,666 things to do first. It's difficult because they're not just right there for me. I've got to download them, rotate them on my laptop, then put them back in the right place on the server.

June, can you shoot horizontally instead of vertically? That will solve it moving forward.
Help keep MVS on the web -> click sponsors' links here on MVS when you buy from them.

Also -> Amazon link
. Click that when you go to buy something on Amazon and MVS gets a cut!

Great idea! I'll try it to see if it works. Sorry I'm not computer literate like most of you. I still have my computer, but it is a IBM Totable from like 1990. I dont think it would work on the internet. The note phones are easy and portable. June

Matthew I have tried rotating the photo with a photo program and no matter what it uploads sideways. :evil:

Is there any way a rotation feature could be added to MVS in the preview or edit windows? I could fix my own photos if that was the case. The strange thing is if I click on the sideway photo in a thread it then opens on the phone right side up. I am getting ready to experiment with which way to hold the phone horizontally to get a picture right side up for future photos :idea: . I don't know what things look like to someone viewing with a computer. The sideways photos are aggravating!
