Image upside down

Post by Holy1 »

Hello everyone, I was going to post a few photos of some of my projects but they are showing upside down. I am using an iPad as source . Any idea how to invert the pics?

Thanks

One way is to download irfanview and load the image, rotate it and resave it. Irfanview is a free program.

To minimize read/write time Apple products will store the image file without rotating it's orientation, and it will set a flag for the proper orientation in the file header. Windows products don't always read this header (different versions of the same standard) and will sometimes display the image in its native format without regard for the note in the header... This happens especially often to me when I use the volume button to click the shutter.

You can rotate images with msPaint (hit the windows button and start to type paint until it shows up). Most other image editors will have a rotate feature as well.

We can read upside down pictures, post 'em anyway!
