When i upload any picture why do they come out sideways for ? @th3j35t3r

@bogeymansavage_

if you are looking at
the community firehouse
at all

you should note
that pictures
are posted in landscape mode

adjust your photos
accordingly

It's part of protecting your privacy: the uploaded image loses some data that could be used to locate you. The orientation of the image is often saved in that data until you make any kind of edit to the pic.

Try doing some rudimentary alteration: color enhancement, minimal cropping, a single pixel alteration, anything, and the data about orientation will save in the actual image, not the meta data.

Oh yeah, alternative: just turn your camera sideways when you take pics you intend to upload: no special attention needed.
