Yesterday I saw Flickr&#39;s function &quot;rotate image&quot;. This is really great,<br>especially for people with lower bandwidth. Could we do something like that,<br>too?<br><br>Idea 1: A tool that downloads the image, rotates it and uploads it either
<br>under the username of the one who called it or by its own username.<br><br>Idea 2: A bot which does that. You can call the bot by {{rotate|right}} or<br>{{rotate|left}}<br><br>What do you think? Would that be possible?
<br><br>Regards,<br><br>Flo</blockquote><div><br>We get a lot of images needing 90° rotation from people who don&#39;t know know to rotate them, and there are a lot of people who rotate them using non-lossless means; a bot or automatic script or something that does the rotation losslessly and is easy to use would be great. It would both decrease the work for the volunteers rotating the images AND ensure that lossless rotation is used so quality stays high.
