I seem to have forgotten how to rotate an image 90 degrees in a post. Help @Greg Bernhardt @berkeman

Yes. I rotated it using microsoft paint but it doesn't appear rotated when creating a new post.berkeman said:Do you have a local copy of the image?
The link you gave goes to post #41 which has no photos. I assume you mean post #39. The photo in that post is displaying correctly for me (i.e. does not require rotation).dlgoff said:I'll post my storm shelter pics in my storm shelter thread. Maybe they're really rotated. If not, could you check them out and fix if not rotated?
Thanks

This is post #41...dlgoff said:It goes to post #41 for me and it has the photos.
bob012345 said:Sure, have a good fire extinguisher but what are the odds of a serious fire in an all concrete buried storm shelter while waiting the few tens of minutes for a tornado to pass? I'd be more worried about sitting in concentrated Radon gas that accumulated over the year.

37?? I'm on Firefox 83.0 (64-bit)dlgoff said:The images didn't get rotated with my browser(firefox 37).
The actual steps depend on your choice of browser (which you mentioned was FireFox-for-clay-tablets or something?) but you can select to clear only files and images but not cookies and passwords.berkeman said:Also, there is some magic thing called "clearing your cache", but each time I try to resort to that, it clears my cookies for lots of websites. I'm kind of a klutz at that...
I'm curious. When you double-click on a JPEG file in a folder on your drive, what application does it open up in? Does your system not have a default photo viewer?dlgoff said:Yes. I rotated it using microsoft paint but it doesn't appear rotated when creating a new post.

yep firefox 37 (64 bit) I like it, as it's less intrusive than the later versions.DrGreg said:37?? I'm on Firefox 83.0 (64-bit)

Now THAT looks like an unstable 3-body problem!berkeman said:Do you have a local copy of the image? Open it with some photo editor and there is usually a way to rotate the images in the editor. In the one below, the little round arrow icon at the top does the rotations.

I think Photo Viewer will allow you to rotate pics.dlgoff said:Windows 7 Photo Viewer
The screenshot resolution is the image screen area percentage of the defined screen buffer ##-## using the browser's developer tools, you can define a temporary screen buffer size that is large enough to accommodate the full resolution of the image in the original file ##-## here's a link to a Chrome-specific step-by-step procedure: https://davidaugustat.com/web/take-ultra-high-resolution-screenshots-in-chromeFactChecker said:You can always take a screen-shot of the displayed photo on the monitor and the resulting photo will be just as you see it on the monitor.
I believe that is standard. I believe orientation is always embedded in the metadata and virtually all renderers recognize it.FactChecker said:You need to be aware that some photo editors will just indicate standard rotations in the metadata and not really change the pixels in the photo
I have run into it when I made DVDs for use by DVD player slideshows. The slideshow looked fine on the computer, but I had to look at each photo in a DVD player to see what it really would look like there. There were hundreds (on many DVDs) that had to be rotated without relying on the metadata.DaveC426913 said:I believe that is standard.

You can rotate the pixels using an editor, but the metadata still tells the renderer which way is up.
I am not positive of this; it is just a suspicion, based on the fact that I've never encountered a renderer that doesn't recognize orientation metadata.
Yeah. I can see a DVD player as an exception.FactChecker said:I have run into it when I made DVDs for use by DVD player slideshows.

In the museums in Gallipoli there are baskets with many such bullets embedded in each other.sysprog said:I agree with @berkeman here − it's easy enough in MS Paint:
original angle:View attachment 273238
(reduced in size and) rotated 90° to the right:View attachment 273239
and there are online image processors that allow whichever degrees of rotation (at https://www.imgonline.com.ua/eng/rotate-image-360.php I chose 45 degrees)

That image is (reportedly − I don't have a to-me-reliable source, but I don't disbelieve it) of two bullets that were recovered after the battle at Gallipoli.

That's also a (silly?) way to keep the PF XenForo software from effectively rounding off the corners of the image.
You can force a cache bypass in most browsers (but not Edge) by holding down the shift key and selecting the reload icon; this will not clear any cookies or other local storage.berkeman said:Also, there is some magic thing called "clearing your cache", but each time I try to resort to that, it clears my cookies for lots of websites.

Also, In Chrome, Firefox, Opera, IE, and some other browsers, Ctrl F5 reloads a non-cached version of the page (aka force refresh) -- it sends a 'cache-control: no-cache' http header directive to the server along with the reload page request . . .pbuk said:You can force a cache bypass in most browsers (but not Edge) by holding down the shift key and selecting the reload icon; this will not clear any cookies or other local storage.
To rotate an image in post, you can use photo editing software such as Adobe Photoshop or GIMP. These programs allow you to select the image and use a rotation tool to adjust the angle of the image. You can also use the built-in rotation feature in most photo editing apps on your smartphone.
The degree to which you rotate an image depends on your preference and the composition of the image. Some images may look better with a slight rotation, while others may require a more significant rotation to achieve the desired effect. It is best to experiment with different angles to find the one that works best for your image.
Rotating an image in post will not affect its quality as long as you are using a high-quality photo editing software. These programs use advanced algorithms to rotate the image without compromising its quality. However, if you rotate an image too many times or at extreme angles, it may result in a loss of quality.
Yes, you can rotate an image without using a photo editing software. If you have a physical copy of the image, you can scan it and use a free online image editor to rotate it. You can also use the rotation feature on your smartphone's photo editing app to rotate images taken with your phone's camera.
To rotate an image to a specific angle, you can use the rotation tool in your photo editing software. Most programs allow you to input the degree of rotation you want, making it easy to achieve the desired angle. You can also use the grid or guidelines in the software to help you rotate the image accurately.
