OT: ATTN Rod speed: Iphone pictures the wrong way round.

Do new Iphones still have that problem where they can only take a picture in 1 of 4 orientations? Don't they have the detector so it can tell which way up you're holding it? I tried my VKWorld phone (a quarter of the price of an Iphone for the same specs), taking 4 photos: portrait, landscape, and both of those upside down. All 4 photos were saved upright.

That was never the case with any iphone.

Answering a question directed at you, in your style of writing, and calling yourself another name with yet another random gmail address is pretty stupid. Why don't you use non gmail addresses?

According to

, it's a bug in the standard camera software that comes with Iphones - presumably it doesn't read the data from the positional detector. Perhaps you use different camera software, or it's only certain models which have it? But I certainly often see sideways photos posted to the likes of Gumtree, and it's always someone with an Iphone.

P.S. what's that bullshit about those detectors need a certain rare metal that will soon run out? Seriously, can they not use a different one? Detecting which way up something is is very simple. Worst case scenario, use a mercury tilt switch or two.

Quoting yourself is the first sign of madness.

So, you know nothing about Iphones then?

How many do you have? And why bother?

Er what? I asked why you don't have socks with random addresses. Why always use gmail ones? You don't actually set those addresses up do you?

On your two phones only.

It's still incorrect, and very annoying when someone is selling a piece of furniture and I have to crook my neck to see it.

Gumtree doesn't randomly rotate images, all mine have gone up the right way round.

But if they did?

Well mine CAN tell me it's precise tilt angle. But I've never found a use for that.

Do some also tell you the acceleration, so you can use it like a Wii remote?

There is no sensible reason for socks.

I've only seen gmail ones. And you're f****ng easy to detect by writing style.

It was common enough fo r that website to be created. And I see it all the time on Gumtree. And anytime I ask, they say they have an Iphone. And Iphones ain't that common here, most have Androids.

Never known that to happen, perhaps Apple use cheap parts? They use shit batteries for a start.

Not with a decent phone.

I prefer taking the piss. Someone was selling a "chair in need of repair". I pointed out that I could fix it. The chair had fallen over :-)

Format? Jpeg is a standard. For non-Apple users anyway, f*ck knows what Apple did to screw it up.

Irrelevant. Answer the question of why one material is required.

Well bugger me (as they say in Australia). That's a good idea. If I strapped it to a long plank of wood, I'd have a spirit level.

Does it?

You mean it works out if you've sped up or slowed down?

Have you tried this? I just downloaded "precise level" from Google Play. It's wrong! If I level the phone according to it's readings, and place an AA battery on it, it slides off.

Ah, there's calibration required, perhaps phones don't have that good a sensor, I'll have to have a go at it with a ball bearing.

Well I cannot see pictures but my phones pictures will OCR which ever way around they are. I'm not sure about stills from movies though. I do understand so many people seem to video in the sideways mode for some odd reason, but this I don't care about since I do not have eyesight to see them. I too wish he would not come up with rude and stupid addresses and just do like everyone else does, remain annon or put the real address. I don't get any more spam one way or the other these days.

I didn't say Clarence was a female name, I said it was sissy. Like Julian.

I said Clare was female. And that's what that Canadian calls itself.

You do that with everything, too f****ng lazy to say "afternoon" for example. Some of the words you shorten don't even end up much shorter.

From the language he sounds like one of yours but google is strangely silent other than the Poem Hunter entries. Quite prolific, authoring old favorites like 'Jock Weecock'.

I will admit I had a senior moment and thought Buffalo Bob's sidekick was Clarence, not Clarabell.
