AutoImageTurner und AutoImageTurnInCSharp

Rotating images based on the 'orientation' EXIF tag with JHEAD software.

AutoImageTurnInCSharp: Kind of a 'library' for CSharp on how to rotate images based on the 'orientation' EXIF tag.

AutoImageTurner is the corresponding .exe.

See here for more information on the EXIF tags used in Windows (.Net).

For C# see also here for another possible implementation.

Example images using each of the EXIF orientation flags (1-to-8), in both landscape and portrait orientations See here.

See here for more information.
