I recently received an air photo of our entire city in .jpg format.  It was rotated 
about 20 degrees off from
tru north-south.

I opened it in MI, registered it so that the error indicators seemed very close, and 
saved it.

If I open it and any other MI table (ie. image as a "backdrop") the whole bunch is off 
by the same +/- 20
degrees.  The vector map is rotated to match the correct location on the raster 
instead of the
raster being rotated into correct UTM coordinates.  Doesn't matter which I open first, 
vector or raster. 
Isn't the first table supposed to control the projection of the map?

I took the image into Photo Editor and rotated it about 20 degrees.  It looks OK, but 
I cannot be sure
that the actual rotation is correct.

Isn't registering a raster supposed to "re-orient" the raster so it displays the 
raster pixels in the location
that were assigned during the registration process?

Any ideas?
