This is expected behavior, and Doug's assumption is right. JPEG images may contain EXIF <http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchangeable_image_file_format>data blocks that also specify the orientation of the image. On your server you need to read the orientation data and use it to rotate the image into the opposite direction. If your server code is written in PHP you can use the Imagick library and the following functions for determining the orientation and rotating the image respectively:Imagick::getImageOrientation()<http://www.php.net/manual/en/imagick.getimageorientation.php>, Imagick::rotateImage()<http://www.php.net/manual/en/imagick.rotateimage.php> . If the server software is written in Java you could use a library such as Metadata-Extractor <http://code.google.com/p/metadata-extractor/> for reading the orientation and any image processing library of your choice for rotating the image.
