    Mine does that too Victoria. A portrait picture when I'm in landscape mode has black bars either side, but I find if I edit, rotate, save, etc back to where I started (I have to go all the way round in a circle) it is the right way up on the forum. Goodness knows why! image

    Give it a try with one here image

    Is there someone that knows if it is in the set up that I can't get the first stage on my IPad mini which I have only just got. Maybe a techno bod! Any help gratefully received.

    Just to note I couldn't do it on my old Ipad either. Thanks in advance
  • Do you mean you don't have the tool bar with some or all of the icons, Try hard?

    The iPhones do not have the capability, perhaps the mini doesn't either?

    Sorry, Panda, I meant a photo the right way up in camera roll makes one rotation to the left when posted on the forum. Photo stream doesn't if they already have the correct rotation. Ill do a test.

     Hmm. These were showing as blank squares until I posted. Pic one was portrait and it has tilted. Pic 2 I rotated to the position it is in to see if it would make another counter clockwise turn but infuriatingly it hasn't.image

    Hi I have the tool bar and can click on the tree and the first page comes up but not as shown on your first picture, I don't have anything on the computer tab, did look into the settings on GW and I have it set to basic editing, has this something to do with it? There is nothing different from the Ipad to the mini (except it fits in my handbag!)

    From photo stream

    Moved from camera roll to a different album (image not visible at present)

     Rotated to 9 o clock and moved to another album (also not visible)

     Edit: only photo stream works for me without requiring rotation. image

    Hi Victoria, I think the reason it doesn't work on some iPads is down to the version of the Operating System (iOS) those ones have installed.  Unfortunately, I don't have access to many iPads at work, so can't test which iOS versions do and don't work but I remember there was a thread to two about this a few months ago.  For those with an iPad which doesn't work, it might be worth trying a different web browser just in case the problem is related to the version of Safari which is included with the 'naughty' versions of iOS. image

    A trowel in the hand is worth a thousand lost under a bush.

    Good pic Try hard image I like your shed/potting shed image

    Victoria, I can always tell when my pics need rotating as after I press upload I can see the picture and if it is rotated there then I need to exit and rotate from my photo album.

    Bob, I'm a OS system down on most - think I'm on 6 so don't have the photo options that some have.

  • Oh cool, glad you got it sorted Try hard.image

    Yes you are probably right Bob and Panda - I'm on 7.1.2
