I took a snapshot with my samsung phone straight down at the snow and then I text messaged the same picture to myself. I then uploaded to here in the hopes that my messaged copy would change something. It can be seen that the image pixel size remained the same however the mass decreased about 20%. This change of 20% could mean sonething purposeful to wordpress such as information that my cellphones settings want embed into the image file such as orientation and gps data of where the image was taken.
Since both images remained visually detailed the same but the copy after messaging remained smaller in byte size I don't really know that if you were to try making a messaged copy appear that it will in fact rectify the orientation of your hand or not. An option is to further test this.
Note that in my messaging ti myself the file copy name got increased automatically but this has not revelance to the 20% change in byte size.
In the 10 minutes since my last reply I found the file I loaded in the first link above (ie. Before) was stripped during uploading it from 215 to 20% less. With that in mind it might be truly indicating that my cellphone is probably flagged in "settings" to always strip on any sent image to anywhere as far as the data and orientation problems of cellphones or cameras that have been problematic. In which case the best way to guarantee reliability might be workdesk screenshot tools which for me (until I've seen this) have always worked reliably.
What I mean is that cellphones have been rushed into the marketplace too quickly compared to the tried and true workstations that don't carry polarized magnets and compasses etc...
Thanks for the experiment and suggestions.
I tried manipulating and saving with different apps. Even took a snip from the screen and saved in Portrait.
Sounds like this discussion may be relevant: https://wordpress.org/support/.....om-mobile/
I downloaded Jafars recent upload so that I could change it in my androids default editor. I turned it and reduced the pixels by 40% and that is the way I usually aim for is under 900 pixels on the width or verticle maximum. Maybe Jafar is correct when stating elsewhere that things can't be too high or long in either direction. If he's right then that's probably why my method has been always working when using my phone.
I did read the link to wordpress which recommends the final fix package to the server. The problem there is that was a 2.5 years ago solution.
So Jafar: what cellphone type are your comments based on?
