How do I rotate an image?

jimeluiz · 02-01-2004, 12:35 PM

I've got this fun shot of our two BTAs, two clowns and two cleaner shrimp, but it was taken with the camera rotated. So now the file comes up 'sidewaze'. I am not fortunate enough to have photoshop on my computer, and you may recall that I cannot even get the camera image management software installed because it requires more RAM than is possible to install.

So I have my trusty card reader, and RS's photo gallery.

Is there a way to rotate the image so I can add it to my gallery and not make folks twist their necks to see it?

Thanks for you help, and patience with my rudimentary knowlege of images on boards, etc.

How's this? Open the picture with MS paint. Choose image from the menu and select rotate.

Great! Thanks. And as you can see in the General area, I figured my way through it.

There is also a free photoediting program that is supposed to rival photoshop. www.gimp.org
