When taking a sideways picture, most cameras and phones now use an orientation sensor to note this in the output. Some cameras will rotate the image explicitly before saving. However, some others will just write the EXIF Orientation tag appropriately. In the latter case, it's the onus of the software to display it correctly by rotating.
I'm not sure where the blame lies here, but when uploading such EXIF orientation-tagged jpegs to pistol-forum I'm finding that the orientation is not displayed correctly. Redownloading them confirms that the EXIF orientation tag has been stripped.
