Default Photo Upside Down

Good Morning or Good Whatever the Part of Day May Be Where You Are,

The photo of my 2005 XJ Vanden Plas which I uploaded to include my signature appears upside down. I cannot figure out how to rotate it 180 degrees? Looked in Profile Section under Edit Signature. Any help for this newbie?

Yep, looks good to me too from down under.


Have you checked to see if the original file you uploaded from is the right way up? If not rotate your original, then edit your signature and add the pic again.

I did post in your Intro asking if it was deliberately upside down!

Now the Aussie comedians will be back to tell us this is upside down.

I think if you give it a 360* spin it will look right to all.

Why bother to edit , we just rotate the notebook screen upside down to view it properly
Well, it looks fine .My tip is before uploading any image to web make sure it is positioned properly , if not you can use windows photo to change the angle

I was at a car dealer the other day and he kept telling me I was upside-down in my wife's Honda. I tried putting my head on the seat and my feet on the windscreen but It just didn't feel right.

I have to re visit this thread, as being in the US, I AM right side up. The pic I have set as my avatar was taken with my iPhone. It is right side up in my phone. I transferred it and others to my computer. I then uploaded it to my garage in my profile and it came out fine there. I didn't see how to just move it to my avatar, so I re-uploaded it to my avatar. At this point it became inverted. I tried it 3 times, the third time I inverted it in my computer and then re-upped it but it is still screwy. Ill admit to being left handed and therefore prone to taking pics upside down, but they always show up as such right away. So, as Charlie Brown so aptly put it "AAAUUUUUGGGGHHHH!" Any chance Im missing something?

I don't know what the problem was. I just downloaded the same picture from your gallery, and uploaded it as your avatar. Seems to be fixed now?

Regardless of how you hold your iPhone to take a photo, the image is stored in landscape and the orientation is stored as an attribute of the image. Result - it always appears exactly as you took it when viewed on iPhone.

This works fine for iPhone, iPad etc but many other software applications do not recognise the orientation attribute. Consequently the image can appear in landscape when it was originally taken in portrait or upside down ......

...... depending on which way round you held the phone when you took the photo.
