Damn, Trinity, caramel shortbread? I will cross the Atlantic for some of that.

A photo of my ex husband looking very tame and helpful but in reality grumbling about having to take those stupid armrest holders off the back of my new chair over the weekend while I sat there and laughed at him. As you can see by my hand-me-down decor, I sure as hell won't be getting the $8000 curtains any day soon! He would not be impressed that I posted some random photo of him on the internet :mfrlol:

Edited to add that I don't know why my photos keep rotating sideways. They look normal in my computer but when I post them, they rotate.

It means that the photo was taken using a digital camera on its side, or scanned in such that it is "on its side", and then rotated using photo viewer software. When you save it, you only save the information that your photo viewer needs to show the picture in that orientation, but the source code for the photo (which is what you upload) still indicates that the photo is on its side. You need to use a different photo manipulating software to do the job.

Simpler to avoid turning the camera sideways! :doctor: If you are using Windows :muahaha: , I believe that the built-in picture viewer will display photos in the original orientation, but has options to rotate left or right by 90 degrees. On closing a rotated picture, a pop-up window asks whether you wish to save it in the new orientation. Once saved, it will always display in that orientation wherever it is viewed.

Carpe Diem

Ohhh, ok, yeah, I took this photo with the digi camera positioned vertically I think. That would explain it. I usually rotate them in the software in my mac that came with the digi cam but I'm not exactly super proficient with computers so who the hell knows what's going on :doctor:

Mmmm now I'm thinking of pancakes again...

I had major technical issues with the site last night as well. It kept logging me out and posting anything was total hit and miss. I think Simon said he has his web host looking into it so maybe they'll figure out what's going on soon. Hopefully Simon is feeling a bit better, he is missed!

It is crazy windy here in Toronto today. Wind gusts of something like 70 km/h. Yikes.
