Description

Hi Patrik,

it would be nice if I could rotate picture 90 Deg CW and CCW as many of my users just put pictures downloaded from camera to the phpAlbum photos directory.

The rotation should save the picture so I do not need to do it more than once.

Thanx,
Jozo

That sounds sensible, but I'd make two points.

(1) If there is a loss of information, eg a reduction of picture quaility, then there is an argument to be made for keeping the original and displaying rotated versions.

(2) One reason I am pretty happy so far with phpAlbum is that it keeps its own data in its own space, and my picture directories are untouched. It seems to read and not write. I hate programs that stick indexes and thumbnails and other "rubbish" in "my" directories.
