    I can explain the rotation problem, it's a little bit technical. You probably took this photo in portrait mode, rotating the camera. Which is fine, of course. Now, let's see what happens when you use a workflow where you use an image editing program such as Lightroom, Photoshop, or others:

    1. As said, you took the photo in portrait mode
    2. Your camera knows you did, and writes "rotated=1" in the EXIF of the JPG image
    3. You import the photo into an image editing program
    4. The image editing program reads the "rotated=1" from EXIF and understands it must rotate all pixels
    5. You export the rotated pixels, and upload it anywhere
    6. All is good, no problems

    Here's where things go wrong: You probably did not use an image editing program for this one and uploaded straight out of camera. The rotate=1 flag is in the EXIF, but now you're expecting JungleDragon to rotate the pixels. You basically skipped step 4 and expect the website to do it.

    Some websites support this, but many do not, and JungleDragon doesn't either. I may improve this in the future but for now the workaround is to first import into an image editing program and then export.

    Hope this helps!     Posted 5 years ago
