Photobucket issue - sideways pictures

I'm trying to load some pictures in the BST forum and they always show up sideways. In Photobucket they are in the correct position, but when I copy the link into my post the pictures always end up laying on their side. Anyone had this issue before and know how to fix it?

    Vary rarely happens to me but try messing with it in photobucket. Click your image -> edit -> orientation -> rotate -> apply -> save (w/o clicking "replace original").
    So basically my kid won't be able to go to college, but at least I'll have a set where the three most expensive cards are of a player I despise ~ CDsNuts

    Thanks Stown. Apparently saving without replacing the original was the key.

    Happens all the time. Photobucket auto-rotates pictures when you display them within their site but not when sending the picture to other sites via a direct link. Pretty annoying - I've had it rotate pictures that were already in the correct orientation.

    Wonder why it rarely happens to my pics. Prior to uploading, I'll look through the set in Windows Photo Viewer. If I rotate a photo, then exit or click next/previous, it will display "saving". Maybe that's the trick?
