I've tried posting more photos of models, and projecfts but I'm not savy with transfering the pictures, they end up sideways... I simpley use an iPhone and a computer to post them... I transfer to the computer first, turn them if needed then transfer to my gallery, still goes back sideways. Any helpful hints?

I hesitate to ask this, but are you sure you're not taking the picture sideways to begin with? I know my phone is intended to take pictures only in a horizontal (landscape) orientation. Otherwise, they download sideways onto a computer.

Anyway, you should be able to open it up in MS Paint and rotate the image, too.

It's a pretty simple fix. Just open them up in MS paint/gimp/etc or indeed just the windows photo viewer and proceed to rotate them 90*.

Are you talking about them being rotated, or are you talking about that annoying thing where they appear the correct way up on your computer and then when you post them they rotate?

I don't know what causes it, I assume there's something the phone writes in to the image that tells you which direction is down and some programs read it and some don't.

I figure if you just open the picture in a program like paint or GIMP, rotate it the way you want it and then save a copy of the image you should be right.
