Picture Rotation 10 years 7 months ago #40265

RobinSmith5 Topic Author Offline New Member Posts: 2 Thank you received: 0	I have inserted pictures into my websites News Page soundshore.toastmastersclubs.org/News.html#null They are in the correct direction, but when I look at the pictures on several different apple devices the pictures, for the posts on 10/2/2014 and 9/15/2014, change rotation. Do you know how I can stop the pictures from rotating? Thank you, Robin Smith

It seems this is an issue with photos taken on an Apple device that are subsequently rotated on a PC. Not all photo editing packages deal with EXIF correctly, and some of the header information is lost so when the picture is viewed on an Apple device it shows incorrectly. One of the articles I read recommends Picasa for editing.

An alternative I would try is to take a screen dump of the upright picture on the PC and upload that image instead. The first few points in this document explain how to take a screen dump: support.toastmastersclubs.org/doc/item/h...ake-a-screen-capture

Someone else might have a better solution.

SteveTheTechie Offline Administrator Posts: 11526 Thank you received: 3795	Well, I have never heard of EXIF before. So, layman or not, thanks for the explanation. Brad: I think this is more about picture orientation rather than swapping them out in slideshow fashion.
