That wall has an issue. I had to bring the part back to the shop and taper it from 9/16" to 3/8" so it wouldn't stick out at the bottom. There's another one that I didn't get a direct shot of that I made too small and need to replace it completely. On the wall with the 1/3rd radiator I neglected to subtract the 5/8" thickness of the wainscot to the left that it butted up against with the hole for the radiator and had to add a pc there. Small things that in the long run don't make a difference because you fix them as you go along. In other words - chit happens.

I have found that if I load them into paint and then save them without doing anything else that the picture orientation will be the same way that I took them.

I've tried putting them in editor, flipping them, resizing them, just saving and retrying. Doesn't seem to help. If I don't take the picture in the proper orientation for CT, it gets mad at me. Do you use a computer mostly?

I take pictures with my android phone. Pictures are put in my drop box automatically. I do all of my posting from a laptop.

Edit: I should add that I can't post at work because my boss is a prick.

If:

If you load a pic in MS Paint, rotate it to the desired orientation, then save it in PNG format, it will stay that way.

JPG has EXIF data that preserves rotation and owner and other "junk".

PNG has no EXIF data and also tends to be much smaller. That of course, comes at a loss of total image quality, which generally isn't an issue for a site like CT.

Sounds like my boss. But I still do it behind his back. He can't run the business without me so I don't care. One day I'll even say it to his face. :whistling

You can save a JPG without the EXIF data too.

If you got enough money, you can fly to the moon.

Simple answers for simple problems will do.

I have an option in PSP 8.1 that writes or doesn't write the EXIF. Can't remember what I paid for it 20 years ago, but it wasn't expensive at all. I use it all the time. If you own a camera you should have something.

Paint is a toy.

Download GIMP or something that can actually work with pictures. Raw Therapee works well to although it's more for converting RAW picture format into something else. It has a good range of manipulations for editing.

I use a Mac, I select the ones I want in Photos, File--Export--Size --Large--Quality--High--Export--I create a destination file named CT. I upload out of the CT file.

Haven't figured it out on the iPhone or iPad yet.

On my old iphone, I had an app. Forget what it was. On the new one, haven't done anything yet. So for now, I just connect it to the PC laptop, browse to the photos and pull them over. Edit the ones going to CT and so preserve the originals for other sites.

Why wait for GIMP to load when you literally can have the whole process done in 30 seconds with Paint? :blink:

 

[shanewreckd]

I still haven't replaced my laptop 2 years down the road, so I do everything off my phone. Maybe one day I'll figure it out, maybe I'll just continue relying on my buddy KAP for being the real MVP and rotating all my pictures for me :laughing:

My computer is fast enough where it takes less than a second for GIMP to load. I keep PSP 8.1 open all the time because I use it so much.

I use Microsoft Digital Image Standard 2006. Came with the computer. Does all I need it to do.

Someday I'm going to take that attitude with my boss too.

Finished the cap and under molding today.

And here's the kitchen it's in. Almost done with most things, counters, tile, electrical, under toekick lighting. All appliances in and functioning.

Funny how he texted me a picture of the tile and I didn't like the bond stack. When I went there and saw it in person I thought the same thing. Funny how it grew on me. Sno said the same thing and it grew on him too.

That pattern is really popular right now. I think it’s a fad that will look dated in 5 or 10 years.
