A lot of users are finding their images are being rotated on upload to the forum.
The problem exists for images created on devices which apply 'exif orientation' data. There is a 'workaround' for PC users, and I have tried to use this to fix some of the images that have been flagged. This involves opening the image in paint, and clicking 'save as', effectively creating a clean file with none of the exif data, and seems to have worked for the images I have done.
This workaround is clearly not ideal, and the implementation of a built in solution is in the pipeline.
(Management tried it last week but it was removed as part of the troubleshooting of the other upload issue, now fixed)
In the meantime PC users can try the workaround, and I will continue to rotate those images that are 'flagged'.
