I appreciate your input, but the mods have no control over the technical side of this site. Only the Admin has that power. I suggest you take it up with him.
I also appreciate that you try to make your posts aesthetically pleasing by keeping landscapes and portraits together. I didn't realise you had that in mind when I edited your post because quite frankly, most people here do not. They slap up whatever they please and in any random order. I only disagree that when you see pictures on their side, when it's easy to fix, it makes the poster look lazy, regardless whose fault it is, and that he doesn't care enough to make his contributions look nice. |
I hate to interrupt your discussion, but I can offer you an explanation.
The short of it is that size doesn't matter (ahem...). Your higher-resolution pic in the example is actually "wrongly" rotated, as it appears in the thumbnail. However, it includes an EXIF tag specifying the correct orientation, that is, 90 degrees clockwise from how it is encoded in the file. Some programs (in fact, most programs) display it upright because they read the EXIF tags and rotate the image for you. However, strictly speaking, the picture is with the wrong orientation. So, the problem has nothing to do with OCC or other sites. If you want to really fix the orientation of the pics, open them with a program that allows you to choose whether to follow the EXIF tag instructions or keep the real orientation, then rotate it and re-save it. |
I have found a quick way to this too. Whenever I see a sideways thumb, I open the image in photo-shop and just resave it - usually at a 9 or 10 quality which is still high resolution. Then I edit my post and replace the the sideways image. It has worked every time for me and only takes a moment.
I suppose this is possible even without photoshop - just use your computer's image editor - but I can't be sure of that. |
