Since I have another thread started that I will need to post some images (of my battery life screens) from, I wanted to try to figure out how to not have the images I take post to AC upside down... As they often do.

I read through a couple of sites and the long/short seems to be an issue with EXIF data. Also, it seems, it may be related to how your phone is oriented when taking pix. As I do not necessarily want to play with my images prior to posting and tend to take a majority of my pix when holding my phone in a landscape orientation, I did find this one seemingly easy 'solution' and below are my results.

What it boils down to is "know your phone". If you had taken that picture to post it, you should have taken it with the power buttons down (obviously).
