On the flickr site turn on the auto rotate option, that will let them display the way you expect there. F-Spot rotates jpegs by changing the exif orientation of the image because it is a small relatively safe modification. This produces an image just like what the camera would have produced if it did have an orientation sensor. I chose to do it this way because f-spot supports loading these images correctly and other rotation methods, lossless or otherwise, require much more drastic modifications to but the image and the metadata. The metadata dialog displays the thumbnail stored in the exif data which is always stored with the sensor orientation, so that is how you would expect it to look.
That said, I will probably add an option to the preferences dialog to do rotation of the coefficients sometime in the near future because the code is already in f-spot for other reasons and some people prefer it. --Larry On Wed, 2006-06-07 at 12:33 -0500, David Berg wrote: > I just imported some photos from my camera which does not have any > orientation information.
