Two questions:

1. How does one rotate a photo? Several of mine uploaded directly from my phone or ipad are rotated 90 degrees. Certainly I don't have to post process them before uploading - that would be crazy. But, I see no option anywhere to rotate a posted image.

2. Where are my photos saved? I can't seem to reinsert an image I've already posted elsewhere. I have to upload again? Certainly not.

Hey all, to post pictures:

============================================================
Update: We have increased security on our web server. Some images may be showing a broken link. If you run into this issue, edit your post and see if there is anything appended to the end of your image like "?1" or anything else. If there is, the file will be rejected by the server and will not display. To fix this, simply strip the appended characters off the end. Using method number 2 below will avoid this issue entirely.
============================================================

If you want to upload a picture from your computer or phone (RECOMMENDED):
  1. Write a post per normal.
  2. At the bottom, use the "Upload a File" button. The picture cannot be too big, but we allow fairly large photos.
  3. After the image is uploaded, you will see the thumbnail.
  4. If you want to embed it in your post, choose, "Full Image" and it will embed at the cursor.

If you are hosting the image at some URL (NOT RECOMMENDED):
  1. Simply use the picture icon and add the url. WE DO NOT RECOMMEND THIS! External URLS are not treated nicely by our internet security, and frequently get broken. Overland Bound has invested in powerful servers with lots of storage so we can host your images.
That's it!

I guess this is good place to test to see if I am doing it right. Some beautiful scenery out in the Coconino National Forest.
