pics rotating 90 degrees?

[torredcuda]

Last few times I`ve posted pics they are getting rotated 90, not sure why?

I can help you.  Let's start with what camera you are using?  Most likely a phone, right?  If it is a phone, what model?

Samsung Galaxy

Great.  This is more common now that phones have advanced so far.  I think this is what's happening...  our forum uploads photos in the native position.  Meaning the forum does not look at the picture nor does it rotate it at all.  However, most phones can take photos with with any side of the phone up and auto rotate them so you see it correctly on your screen, but the native view remains.  So when they are uploaded to a site like ours (that does not have the technology to see what way should be up and rotate the photo) they come in sideways or upside down. 

Do me a favor and run a little test.  Find a clock or wall art that is easy to know what way is top and bottom.  Then take 4 photos of the same object and turn the phone camera 90 degrees each time.  So in the end you have 4 photos of the same object all taken with a different edge of the camera on top.  Then post all 4 photos on this thread and let's see how they post.

Rotated clockwise

It does appear that your smart phone is just that, smart enough to rotate the photos so you see them as it thinks you should and our forum uploads the photos in the original rotation orientation that they were taken.

When you look at those 4 photos on your phone it most likely auto flips them for you and makes them "appear" that they are correct, right?

The fix?  Tag me in the photo and ask me to rotate them.    But at least it's easy to tag me and easy to upload photos.

Kenmore. 

Nope!  Funny thing a realtor recently came by for an appraisal and thought that oven was new, I think it`s probably as old as the house and I just cleaned it pretty good!

I'll take a stab.

Looks like it was made in the middle 80's. The buttons are why.

Goldstar? They were going strong then.

Sorry if I took this thread on a detour but it was too tempting.

I think Topcat has the age about right but no correct answer yet.
