Please see here: https://commons.wikimedia.org/wiki/Commons:Village_pump#Autorotation_using_EXIF_tag_with_MW_1.18 Firefox 3.6 and Opera 11.5 do not rotate images based on EXIF tags: totally confusing when you click on the 800px preview to see the image in full that the image is suddenly wrongly rotated by 90° (portrait image). Usability failure in my opinion. Next time: Please ask Commons community before! :-) Solutions(?): *rotate them serverside (lossless!) and offer an additional download link (ugly) for the original image. *Get the browsers to rotate images based on EXIF. EXIF rotation is a confusing idea ;) And: we will get thousands of images being wrongly rotated in our old images! Images have wrong EXIF tags but it didn't matter since MW did not respect them. We probably need a bot deleting the wrong tag to fix them: exiftool -Orientation= filename.jpg -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.wikimedia.org/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are the assignee for the bug.
