I have a recurring problem when I import photos into PS’s web gallery. It will take vertically oriented photos and make them horizontal. As I remember, this didn’t happen in the last version. Is this a bug? Any workarounds other then having to manually rotate each image of the web pages?

Hi Chris – I upload images from my Canon 10D into iPhoto. I edit the photos in Photoshop. If I’ve rotated an image in iPhoto and then open it in Photoshop, it turns another 45 degrees. What do you mean when you say a photo is "marked" to be rotated? I didn’t have this problem until I upgraded to CS – there were no problems in 7.0
Bobby – most likely iPhoto is rotating the image but not changing the EXIF data that says the image needs to be rotated. That would be a bug in iPhoto.
As far as I can tell, this is a Photoshop problem. Other applications in Panther do recognize the rotated image: Preview, any browser, Photoshop 7. I imported a vertical photo into Illustrator 10 and it retained the proper orientation. For some reason, CS does not like verticals! I would hope Adobe releases an update to fix bugs like these. Until then I will use iPhoto’s web export feature–not as nice but it works the way it should.
OK guys – so I’m mathematically challenged. I should have said 90 degrees. I still have the rotation problem…just worked with recent uploads to iPhoto (v.2) and opened them in PSCS – and they’re rotated from vert. to horiz. I’m going to try rotating them in the camera before uploading and see what happens then.
