Who are you referring to, would imagine most on here are using their boats in the salt. Freshwater's for vegans and windsurfers!!!!

Malc Posted June 12, 2022 Author Share Posted June 12, 2022 (edited) Briny for my friends' boat. Going to launch her this afternoon and get her back on the pontoon. Kayaks are less faff 😁 Edited June 12, 2022 by Malc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JDP Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 This is the work boat which is launched most days of the week and like most boats here sits on skids. No idea why it uploads upside down. JonC 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jezz how many times do we need to go through this!!! If it was too large it wouldn't load at all. The metadata within the file contains orientation info that tells applications (such as the forum software) which way up to render the image. Clearly the forum software is smart enough to know that Jon is from down under and is rendering the image upside down to make him feel at home.

I hoped nobody would stoop to that level of attempted humour. The picture orientation thing is odd though, I can load 3 photos from the same device and they will all load different way up. It’s no big deal though I just rotate my monitor. suzook12 and JDP 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hence why I sent it from my phone, because it allows me to send at lower size. 7 minutes ago, Andy135 said: If it was too large it wouldn't load at all.

Its the correct way on my phone just like the other image. I also tried uploading several times to see if any would change but each time it turned the trailer upside down.

Your phone will have an option within your camera app to remove metadata from files. Might be worth enabling that option to see if it also removes orientation data.

I'll do some digging around in the system settings later to see if there's anything we can do. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JDP Posted June 17, 2022 Share Posted June 17, 2022 A yellowfin from this boat on the weekend. Test to see if it loads correctly. No, this one has decided to go sideways!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have seen other posts on here where pictures have flipped, so its not just a down-under thing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to have the same problem until I discovered cropping the photo changes how it is posted and the orientation. JDP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I used to have the same problem until I discovered cropping the photo changes how it is posted and the orientation. You're both in IOS I suspect and cropping will change the orientation data I think. I've just checked with our forum software provider and apparently these sideways pictures are a known issue with IOS users (I use Android and I have never had this problem). They've rolled out a fix in the latest forum software version, so I'll upgrade us to that later on today. JDP 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
