A Problem with Photos in the Classified Section
 

What is the problem with so many of the photos which are posted in the Classified Section?

So many of them are sideways or up-side-down.
Is there an issue with the site or is it the fault of the poster? :shrug:

It's the poster.

This site does not appear to have any way to rotate a picture for posting, so if the person taking the picture held their phone or camera in an unusual orientation, you get the unusual results, I find the upside-down ones very humorous.

You need to take the photo, save it, then open it in your photo editor app, rotate it, save it again, and then upload it to your post.

When you download a picture, under each picture there is two arrows to rotate your picture.

Please clarify your post. When posting a photo, the website allows you to "upload" (not download) a photo from your computer. But after you do that, I cannot find any way to rotate the photo. I always rotate the photo using my computer's photo editor before I upload it to the website and post it. Thanks.

If you find the arrows on the TOTV website, please let me know.

Thanks for everyone's comments.

I posted this thread because I'm tired of either standing on my head to view a photo or turning my laptop up-side-down for the same purpose!

I see the arrows on your post, but I sure don't see any arrows on my tablet when I upload a photo to the TOTV website. Does anyone else see the arrows on their screen, before they submit a post?

If your photos are upside down or sideways in your add.Go to the top of the Classified Page and click on EDIT LISTING,then on next screen scroll down to your photos.You will see the arrows under each photo. Don't make me come over there.

Thanks. Ok, I found the arrows in the classfied section. Apparently, when I posted my one and only classified ad, I just went to the "items for sale" forum, and uploaded my photo as a new thread (no arrows there). So, it looks like any photos posted directly onto the forums cannot be rotated, but classified ad photos can be. I don't even know why classified ads appear in the forum section.
