As this Topic dealt with an earlier version of the MOC software and a different photo process, a new Thread would have been best.

This question has been asked before. The software support folks here provided the following answer:

Most phones auto rotate the view for the viewer. If you take a pic in landscape orientation the pic will display properly regardless of the way you turn the device. The forum can't do that. Most phones default camera orientation is portrait - folks shoot a pic in the non-default view and it always looks fine to them - they upload the pic here and it displays in it's default view (on it's side).

The solution for most folks to fix this is to open the image holding the phone in portrait orientation, and resave the image on their device. When they upload it here - it should behave correctly.


Some phones have onboard software to fix this issue - some don't. Confusing...


I have found that loading the pics to my PC and then using the View setting "Large Icons" at the Directory level lets you see which pics are rotated. Then you can use one of the photo management tools to rotate the pic before you post it.
