The image posting upside down or sideways could be a browser, device or server software issue as well as a function of the original image metadata (date, time, orientation, etc.) associated with the image, plus the various image formats (.gif, .PNG, .BMP, ). To get an idea of some of the complexities involved, maybe a little light reading, such
as this or other tech pages will help to appreciate this subject.
That said, no doubt you'll point out that this is a recent issue for you. Well, AK has gone through some forum and server software updates including a very recent Elastic Search version update following the Cloudflare implementation and other ongoing tweaks. It's perhaps possible that some of these are causing loss of, or incorrect interpretation of, or incompatibility with the metadata or how it's stored or presented, resulting in these apparent flipped images. Add to this the fact that only some members have this issue, i.e. it's not a consistent across the board issue, complicates identifying a common root cause.
There are other changes ongoing and issues addressed on AK, so this is not being ignored and has been advised up the chain. Notifying it again here at this thread juncture with admin
@Advally in case of Cloudflare image handling effects or other possible factors from recent updates. Your patience is appreciated.
