I use GIMP. It is capable of more than what I do with it, but is excellent for what I do manage to do. As Leo says it politely suggests correcting orientation. Rotate and crop a slightly to somewhat more tilted image. I find it excellent for resizing images to any desired smaller size. Embed a copyright notice - or any text for that matter. Lighten a somewhat dark image. Judy in New Jersey where we had 1.76 inches of rain earlier in the week. My rain barrels are now quite full.

When I was imprisoned in Windows I used the built-in Windows image editor; now I use Linux and GIMP. GIMP recognizes incorrect orientation information and offers to correct it. If not using GIMP, rotate the photo 90 degrees in any direction. Save the file and close. Reopen the file, rotate to the proper orientation, save and close. It will upload correctly oriented. > > GIMP is a very complex open-source image editing program.
