The pictures are often loading sideways, I may have a temporary fix....

I noticed that some of the times, pictures we post are coming through in landscape mode when they were loaded as Portrait/vertical mode.
I've tried this a few times and noticed that pictures taken from my phone and loaded to the computer are fine if they started out as landscape from when the picture was taken. Often times, even when I'm taking pictures with the phone laying sideways, the image loads onto the phone as vertical unless I shake the phone a little.
Pictures that were loaded to my computer in vertical then changed to horizontal often show up as vertical again.
Why?
I don't pretend to know, that sure is above my computer skill level.
Maybe we can try to make all pictures in landscape/horizontal mode when taking them.
In the meantime, if your pictures seem to be loading incorrectly, try pulling up the picture and taking a screen shot of it, then post that. I tried it and it does work.
This picture looks vertical when I click to load it here.

Try loading pics from the top tool-bar of your post. Works for me, every time.
