Im taking this course to build my photography webpage and two of my best pics are being displayed upside down in the workspace preview. Are there any suggestions on how to fix this?

3,887 PointsThis most likely isn't a Workspaces issue, or even an issue with your code. I'd be willing to bet your image contains rotation Exif metadata. Different browsers and software programs may or may not interpret that metadata and apply the rotation automatically when an image is displayed. My guess is that your picture actually is upside down but contains metadata to rotate it that the browser isn't interpreting.

Your image editor of choice should give you some insight into the Exif data to confirm (or try this http://metapicz.com). But basically, you probably want to either strip the Exif data, or rotate your image to actually be right-side up and then modify the rotation value.
