Hi all.
Just wondering if someone is able to spin this photo around. I was going to delete it and upload again, but someone has commented on it. The photo was uploaded correctly, but for some reason it spun around. The full-sized image is the correct way up. 
Thanks
Simone

Hi ,

When I click on the full sized version it is around the correct way !

https://www.wikitree.com/wiki/Help:Photos_FAQ display as landscape/horizontal?

Some operating systems and browsers automatically reorient the display of a photo. It may have been taken horizontally but it appears vertically on your computer because your system "knows" that's the proper orientation. WikiTree isn't this sophisticated. It displays photos as they are uploaded. You should be able to rotate the photo on your local system and save it, then upload it to WikiTree.

Lesley is probably right but I dl the photo and turned it 90 degrees and posted it on her profile. Please note that there are now two pictures that are the same  If it doesn't work please let me know  and we will try something different.

Thanks Leslie. I was able to do that, too. But just wondered if someone could actually edit the original. I don't want to remove it as someone has commented, and that seems rude to remove it.
Thanks anyway. :-)
Perhaps make the photo a little smaller? perhaps it was the size of the picture nd not just the kb it is ok if you delete the pic I added. It wont offend me. What is important is that the picture is correct and you are happy with it.
Yes, I think I will just have to get rid of the original. Thanks for your help. :-)

Maybe you could change the photo as suggested above, but before you do, copy the original comments and when you re load the photo paste the comments back into the comments sections ( with a note ) stating why they are copies of original comments....
Excellent idea! Thanks Lesley. Done!
Thanks to everyone for your suggestions.
Let us know when you are finished with the photograph so we can see your masterpiece :o)
