        iPhone or Android? either way a smartphone is basically a pocket sized computer. I'd look for a photo editing app (apple app store or google play store) that allows for picture rotation, sizing and cropping and install it on your phone. I don't have experience with smartphone apps as I use a computer for photo editing so I can't recommend one. I do know there are multiple apps available for either phone. Look at the user reviews to get a feel for the apps usability and usefulness. Hope this helps a little...Good Luck in your search!!

          @Juddlight..Just found this regarding S6 photo sizing. You should be able to set the size of your photos in-phone to a size that will upload to the forums. Just choose a smaller size than you're using now:

          Access Galaxy S6 front camera settings.
          Switch to front camera, tap gear icon (settings)
          Now, in camera settings, you can find out what the settings are for the front camera.
          Tap Picture size (front) to set Galaxy S6 photo size for the front camera.
          The available picture sizes for Galaxy S6 front camera include:
          • 5.0M (4:3) 2592x1944
          • 3.8M (16:9) 2592x1458
          • 3.7M (1:1) 1936x1936
          • 0.3M (4:3) 640x480

              David Parrish and Meathead - any chance the site could be enhanced to auto-rotate images after they are uploaded? Most phones embed EXIF information that can be used for this purpose. We use this in our apps at work, and I found a StackOverflow thread that discusses doing it in PHP:

                  Juddlight I had that problem with my iPhone and I edit the pics and made them square. They posted with no problems after I made the pic square. Or you can resized them to a smaller size.

                    It was explained to me that pics that show up sideways don't have orientation information. What I've found to work is to just make a quick edit to the pic and save it. That adds orientation info. The edit can be so subtle you don't even notice it.

                          David Parrish - I can see that a photo without orientation information would be a problem, but that's not the case with most of what I've seen on this site. Here's an example:

                          Here's a pic that is not rotated properly on Amazing Ribs

                          However, examining the full JPG shows the following details from the Preview app on my Mac:
                          Color Model: RGB
                          Depth: 8
                          DPI Height: 72
                          DPI Width: 72
                          Orientation: 6 (Rotated 90° CCW)
                          Pixel Height: 1,440
                          Pixel Width: 2,560
                          Profile Name: sRGB IEC61966-2.1

                          It looks like the AR site isn't making use of the orientation value embedded in the JPG.
