Grrrr. I've got a photo taken with my i-phone in portrait (which I guess is where the problem originated!)
Copied it to my PC, rotated and compressed / resized accordingly. Uploaded it and it is fine on my PC on the forum, but coming back to my i-pad and the forum has un-rotated it.
So I re-uploaded it " sideways" on the PC....and it still appears sideways!
The " old" forum had resolved this (I think) towards the end if its' life......
I will take another snap in due course, but it's a bit frustrating......

Also looks fine to me.

Try clearing your internet cache, that might help.

Definitely something wrong. It looks an out-of-focus bit of a blue car that seems to have been taken by somebody who didn't know the camera was on.

Try using a proper camera - usually works better for most things photographic

Photo looks good Paul. How did you get such good definition? I thought Rob said recently that the avatar can only be something like 117 x 117 pixels or similar...?
