    Rotate the image on your computer before uploading it. Depending on your version of Windows, it may have a rotate function built in.

    I have windows 7 on the laptop, I gave up last night as I was close to chucking the thing out altogether.

    I'll maybe attempt it all again today sometime, thanks again for the help and advice.

    Just find the image with Windows Explorer, right click on it and you'll have a couple of rotate options.
    There's also a free image resizer available at http://imageresizer.codeplex.com/, which once installed is handy for resizing an image before you upload or email it and is used in the same way, by right clicking on the image. I use it all the time if I want to email a camera image to somebody.
