Aha!!Walking Thanks so much Mark - much appreciated. How the heck did you get that right? (for future reference):confused:
I use a program called Irfanview. It's been around for quite some time and, for me, is indispensable for working with photos! As an example, when iPhone owners shoot a picture, they normally hold the iPhone in the vertical, or up, position. While this works for sending the picture to other iPhone users, it will result in rotated pictures when downloaded to computer and posted online. The proper way to shoot with an iPhone is to hold the iPhone horizontal! I learned this through research, as I was having the same issue when posting pictures online. I don't know if this applies to Android phones, though!
I also use another program called Caesium to reduce the picture file size while not degrading the picture quality. Many of you may know that I post the majority of my pictures on VDF at the maximum size allowed, so that everyone can clearly see my drums and restoration projects. Using both Irfanview and Caesium to manipulate my pictures is time consuming...but the only way for me to be able to upload to VDF.
As the saying goes, "a picture is worth a thousand words", so why not post pictures the best they can be?!!
Sorry for the long explanation, but I just wanted to explain how I do it!
