why does when I try to toot pictures it turns them sideways. :( how do I make this not happen

@green If you're holding the camera sideways, it's probably storing it "rotated" relative to what the camera thinks is right-side up. You probably need to tell your phone to turn on auto-rotation so when you snap the photo, the phone/camera realize you're holding it sideways.

@literorrery nope, I was holding the camera upright; when I sent the pictures to my email they came in upright. it's the M$oft photo editor that initially turns them sideways. I turned them back upright when I saved them, but it's evidently not sticking. hmmmm....
