Quoting ALMonty,

I searched YouTube and the internet to find out all the little tips and tricks for 10 that's how I came across the Photo viewer.



It's a great tip for an older program that works fine.

 

Not really an old program it's still in there you just have to turn it on. MS wants you to use their new apps, which is cool, but I don't need all that to look at a picture.

I found out that when you take a picture with the iPhone horizontally it depends on where the button is to take a picture. I believe if the button is on the left the picture will be upside down when you transfer it to a computer.

If your using Win 10 you can use Windows Photo Viewer to rotate it. This is not the app that comes with 10 but the one from 7 & 8. It's still on 10 you just have to activate it.

See here:  http://www.intowindows.com/how-to-enable-windows-photo-viewer-in-windows-10/

Yeah, I went to the page and tried to download the reg file but it was just coded text.  However, I managed to find the required reg file over a majorgeeks and now I have the original Windows Photo Viewer up and running as my default image viewer.

Now I just have to figure out which way to rotate my pics to post them correctly.

Orright, then!  I supposedly have exceeded the image upload count.  I find that amazing since I haven't been able to successfully upload a photo as yet.... have had a few attempts, though.  Hopefully a mod will be able to reset that for me.  T.I.A.

I'm glad it worked out.  

 

If you copy the text and paste it in notepad and save it as .txt file (Windows Photo Viewer.txt). Then change the .txt extension to .reg (Windows Photo Viewer.reg).  

 

This is for those who would like the old viewer. I'm just sharing.  

 

And ALWAYS back up your registry before you change anything.

As far as I can tell it's simply cause and effect...WYSIWYG ... if the actual image is right way up on your computer it is posted that way.
Not my case. On Brad's Dog Thread, I uploaded a pic of my dog, in proper rotation, but it showed up sideways. I cropped and resized and reupped, it's fine now.

Rnd...youneed to know that what you see on you computer is actually what you get.

File image orientation might only be definite in image properties (resolution) and only quaintly corrected for you by the os and/or image app.

No matter what im uploading (whereever) im checking it via psp or dopus... but not by a "viewer" that may try to screw things up for you ....

Okay, I think I've solved the problem of sideways pics, just by activating Windows Photo Viewer and making it the default.  I just successfully uploaded a pic of me and my bowdler over on Frogboy's dog thread.

Anyhow, I'll see if I can successfully replicate the feat with a progress pic of my new build.

So this is it thus far.  Some of the cable management stuff turned up so I've been able to make some more progress with tidying things up.  The large cable going from the back to the front is actually six SATA cables bundled into that stretchy braided cable protector.

Anyhow, it seems as though my 'sideways' issue has been solved and I'll take my new build stuff back to it's own thread.

Well, I know if I take a picture with my cellphone I often have issues of them not showing up in the proper orientation when I upload them somewhere. I have to rotate them the other direction for them to show up correctly even though they looked fine on my computer.

That seemed to be the problem when using Shaunna's iPhone, and no amount of correction would allow me to post pics up the right way.  However, I have since reverted back to using my Nokia Lumia 820 Windows Phone 8, which takes pretty decent pics, and I can now take my own.  There's no orientation issues with my Windows phone, either.

I was using an Android phone to access banking apps not on Windows Phone, but I never really liked it and it would never show up on my PC when I took photos I wanted to upload to my PC.

All's well that ends well.

And the pocket aircraft carrier I have tied up in the harbour.      

Actually, this machine is going to need every watt, what with all the stuff that's going in it.  Although I've changed my mind on a few things, there 'll be 13 HDDs; 8 SSDs; 2 M.2 SSDs, plus all the other regular stuff and then some.

Well, that said, the pic wasn't sideways on my computer, but was in the forums. Until I cropped and resized.  That is what I do know....

very cool.

Image viewers can be 'intelligent' and correct orientation on the fly....so when you look at a stored image it is corrected for you.

Run the same image through a proper graphics program and it will load exactly as saved...upside down whatever.

It will need correction/rotation within the graphics proggy and be resaved prior to upload.

Interestingly that same viewer will show it the same way still....as if you never altered it.

When it comes to images from mobile phones....there needs to be an error message in the viewer that says "OTHER WAY, MORON YER UPSIDE DOWN AGAIN".

Of couse it all could be messed up because some of us on this planet are upside down already...
