Tony ... it seems that cell phone pics have a tendency to translate over to this site that way.

What I've been told, and what I tell others, is ... if you take a cell phone pic with your phone straight up & down, and the pics come out (on here) turned to the left -- then take future pics with your phone turned 1/4 turn to the right (top of phone to your right).

Unless your phone's camera has the capability to be changed from "portrait" to "landscape" mode, turning the phone sideways to your right is the easiest way to consistently get pics downloaded on this site to come out in the correct position.

You can always use the Test Forum to see how pics will turn out, or even use the "Go Advanced" and "review" buttons before posting .... BUT --- neither of these have the ability to turn the pics to the correct orientation. They'll just show you how the pics will appear in your post, once submitted. So, your best option is to take the photos with the phone turned to the right, in the first place.
