There were many reasons for the change of the site software, the biggest was security. The age of the old software also meant no server updates for certain programs. There are many benefits to the new software, one of the biggest is the mobile functionality. Ill fix up some stuff in the coming days, we'll also try to get some of the old addons back or the data imported back into the site like the garage. To create a thread or to reply with a post is basically the same as it was in the prior software. The default style of the site is light colored, but i temporarily added a darker colored style, to change you can find a link at the bottom of the site.

Open it in any photo editor or image editing package, rotate it, save it, then load it up to display - problem solved. 
They come displayed that way cos when you took the pic, you didn't align your phone or camera with the 'default vertical' setting you have saved on that device, so it's being displayed according to the way your device was set at that time - the way the device was set by you!! You could probably rotate the image in your device's gallery & then save it again in order to get it to display the way you really want it to appear; or you could always select portrait or landscape mode in your phone/camera as appropriate whenever you flip the device from straight up onto its side - well, unless you WANT the pic to display sideways....
It took me ages to work out what I was doing to cause this, but once I realised my devices have a 'default vertical' & that I should change that whenever I swap the alignment from portrait to landscape or vice versa, my pics started appearing the right way up when displayed!! :thumbup:

The forum pics always render in landscape orientation. With portrait orientation pics, download to an editing app, make ANY change, then save and upload. Works for me .Open it in any photo editor or image editing package, rotate it, save it, then load it up to display - problem solved.
