How can you rotate them? Thanks

Rotating, cropping, editing in general - all has to be done in your computer before loading. So, it depends on what photo editor program you have. It’s quick once you get that hang of it. If you don’t like the one your computer came with, there are plenty of free photo editors available on the internet. I found a very capable one, but of course don’t remember the name - will look when I get home. I think it had “Stone-“ in its name. If you’re posting from an iPhone, well, it’s kinda like a box of chocolates, you never know what you’re going to get. I THINK the key to upright photos on an iPhone (without editing) is to always take the picture with the phone in the upright/portrait orientation, not the sideways/landscape mode. You can then edit if you want to crop too n bottom, but don’t rotate it and it will post correctly. I think. A little sketchy on the iPhone part...

This is where I chime in "If they updated the software on this forum from the 1995 version they're running, it would be way easier to post photos and they'd be upright automatically"

Posting from your mobile device is where the rotation becomes sketchy and sometimes unpredictable ( old software is contributing to this apparently ).

If you post from your PC/laptop/desktop windows/mac/linux computer, you should be able to open the folder/location of the picture file with a file browser so you see the icon of the photo. If the icon of the photo is flipped wrong, right click it and you should see "rotate clockwise" and/or "rotate counter-clockwise" as options for the icon/file/image in your file browser window. Get that images rotated properly on your local machine, then post it as stated above and it should show up correctly on the site.

FastStone Image Viewer 6.4 is the free pic program I was trying to remember.
