TOPIC:

Fished the Puff with my wife and kids. Caught 3 Steel, 1 fat Coho and 3 Trout. My daughters 14.5 Laker was good for 4th place and my wife's 12.5 Laker took 9th. Our best 5 fish weighed 51.5 which was third best I think. Top fish was 18.95 King and second was 16.5 King. Top 5 box was 61 lbs caught by my buddies crew on Yellow Dog. Boatre Dame got the big King. It was hot, flies were biting but everyone found some fish. We fished in 115-120 FOW around the 01 / 02 line. A lot of guys stayed in the 100' range and had good fish. I didn't take too many pictures and I blame the heat for that!

400 Copper with Monkey Puke took 1 Trout, 300 Copper with Ripe Banana Spoon took 2 Steel, 150 Copper with Bloody Nose Spoon took 1 Steel, Tin can SNG on the bottom took 2 Trout and a Lemon Ice Spoon on a pinned slider 20' above the base which was at 60 took the Coho. Pretty pronounced temp break between 60 and 70.

Sounds like a great day!

Great job! Thanks for the report.

Nice catch! Is it a site flaw that so many pictures get posted sideways and upside down??? I'm sure people aren't posting sideways pics on purpose...maybe dirty can fix something??

Outstanding

It is not a site flaw, the site loads the images correctly. The problem is the phones and how they send orientation data. I will see if I can try and hack up a way to account for this.

ok I now remember why I never worked on this. It is a sorted and complex issue that is different between phones, windows, MAC OS etc.

What I will suggest right now, is that you take pictures how your phone intended them to be taken. On an iphone for example, all pictures are intended to be taken in landscape mode with the volume buttons down.

You might be saying to yourself.......well Facebook does it right! Well FB has an app that runs on the phone that taps into the quirky image orientation of the phone itself. And they have alot of programmers and money to make changes as needed on the fly.....because everyone does it differently. Heck windows even sees the images wrong as well and need rotation after being downloaded on the computer.

I could write a 10 page dissertation on why this so seemingly simple task is so overly complicated.

So what we have now are two options:
1) Take the picture how your phone intends you to take it (silly but true)
2) Send the pic to your computer and rotate the image so it looks right on the screen, then save it and upload it to the web site.

I will also investigate if I can easily add in a user tool or admin tool to correct previously uploaded images because I am sure it will still constantly happen. Heck I cant even take pictures how apple intended for me to......lol. I always send them to the computer and post from there.

Thanks Jeff...I wasn't being critical, just wondered why so many pictures that get posted are sideways. I'm like you, I always send the pics to my computer and have photobucket do the work for me.

Jeff you forgot Option 3) post picture as is and take the flack from people (to clarify - poster take flack not you Jeff)
thanks for your work Jeff - I understand the complexities of these sites and the work it takes in the back ground to often do the seemingly simplest of things
