Frequently Asked Questions

Rotating by 90 or 270 degrees swaps the width and the height, so a 3000 by 2000 photo becomes 2000 by 3000. That is the normal result of turning a rectangle a quarter turn.
For 90, 180 and 270 degree turns, the pixels are simply rearranged, so there is no loss at all. Small custom angles require resampling and can soften the image very slightly.
The rotation is applied to the image, and the result is saved as a still. If you need the animation preserved and turned, work on the original file in a dedicated editor instead.
Yes, that is exactly the case it is built for. A 90 degree turn writes the orientation correctly so the file shows the right way up in browsers, mail clients and print software.

About Image Rotator

It happens constantly: a portrait shot held the wrong way round, a scan of a document feeding in sideways, a portfolio shot rotated by an accident. The fix takes two seconds, but the annoyance is finding an editor, and the wrong fix is rotating the picture inside a document so the orientation tag stays wrong and it flips back on the next export.

This rotator accepts jpg, jpeg, png, webp and gif files of up to 10 MB and turns them by 90, 180 or 270 degrees, or by a custom angle for the moments when straight is not the answer. Quick 90-degree buttons are the ones you will reach for almost every time, and the orientation of the saved file is written properly, so the image appears the right way up in browsers, email clients and print queues alike.

Rotating a rectangular image by 90 degrees swaps its width and height, so a 3000 by 2000 landscape photo becomes a 2000 by 3000 portrait. That is expected behaviour, not a bug, and it is exactly what you want when a phone photo was saved in the wrong orientation.

When to Use This Tool

  • Fixing a photo that was shot or downloaded sideways, without installing an editor
  • Turning a landscape scan upright before sending it to a colleague or archiving it
  • Rotating a screenshot or design mock-up to match a specific layout or review format
  • Correcting an image before printing, so the paper orientation and the file agree with each other
