Some new firsts for Lucas
Over the past few weeks Lucas has
1) Rolled over by himself
2) Touched his hands together and begun playing with his fingers
3) Christened the carpet.
The last point was rather amazing. In the split second between taking him off his change mat (located on the bathroom floor) and putting him in the baby bath, he managed a precision poo strike that struck the only open piece of carpet.
Another reason to question the logic of putting carpet in bathrooms.
Anyway, here is a picture that for some ridiculous reason, Blogspot likes to rotate at 90 degrees. Any HTML gurus wasnt to suggest the problem?
Plasmo - the photo is in standard 'landscape' orientation. I resize the photos using a quick batch operation in Photoshop (hooray for well designed software that took me five minutes of reading the manual to create a very effective automated task.)
The source code for this image is (taking away some of the <> tags) is :
a onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}" href="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3697/3359/1600/IMG_0252.jpg" img style="display:block; margin:0px auto 10px; text-align:center;cursor:pointer; cursor:hand;" src="http://photos1.blogger.com/blogger/3697/3359/320/IMG_0252.jpg" border="0" alt="" /
Somewhere, surely all I have to write is 'rotate:90;' or something similar? So far my HTML skills comprise fiddling with the margins and fixing the image width using width:AAApx;
Thanks in advance HTML gurus :)

I've searched for the bug and so far, nada. However, are you using flickr to host these images?
I upload them directly to the blogspot server.
I have a seperate photobucket account.
Some people have suggested that I host them remotely. Do you think it will help solve some problems?
No, sorry, you can't change the layout/rotation of an image with source codes (some crazy java script might be an exception, but technically you can do almost anything with js).
Yes, hosting externally will solve it, just reference the external URL.
It's pretty surprising that Blogspot wont display it as you've uploaded it. Perhaps the rotation changes are not being saved when you make it. Open it in a browser before you upload it ot make sure, otherwise, check the image service on the blog spot server, surley this is not a limitation of blogspot.
