Tech Support (Parent and Student Access)/Avatar upside down 04-28-2019, 10:07 PM
I just changed my avatar so that it was a picture of me and it has loaded upside down. I've redone it a couple times with the same result. Any ideas on how to fix this?

Fix it in your computer. Save your changes. Maybe even change the name of the file. Then upload it again.

If you mean by fix it, I saved a duplicate image on my computer and changed it so it was upside down. Just tried putting the upside down one in and it still comes out upside down. So weird! Any other ideas?

Try cropping it and re-saving it as a different named image. I've had this happen, and it only resolved when I cropped the image (even just a sliver) and saved it as a new image. I have no idea why that sometimes happens.

How is that? I didn't think I would be able to do it for you without my computer, but apparently I can. I hope that's what you wanted.

Just came on to put in my cropped pic and to my surprise you've fixed it for me. Thanks!!
