Photo Rotating and Editing

I use three software programs for editing my photos/images before I upload them to my Blog Posts.

The first is Irfanview
, and the second is MS Paint, along with MS Picture Manager - generally located on your computer.
  • If I want to leave a photo as is, but just put a border around it, I use Paint. Quick and easy.
  • If I want to reduce it in size, I use Picture Manager, although there are lots of programs which will do it.
  • If I want to 'compress' a photo, or 'rotate' it, I use Irfanview.

The reason I use Irfanview is because it has a Custom 'fine' rotation, and a variable 'Decrease Paint Depth', for compressing. Plus, it has many other features I may want, from time to time. It's one of the few really good programs of any sort, which is also FREE.

To rotate an image, say 30% to the right...

Original + border

Why a 'rotated' image would be needed, is up to the individual blogger. How, is now easy. Download it to your Blog.
