Unusual 19c

Post by Idris »

Picked this up recently: a 19c with a '19' decal on one side and (the remains of) a 52 decal on the other!

Cool! Well spotted.
Also pretty nifty how they got the anti gravity feature to work in this model on the cork ceiling! ;-)
Happy hunting!

A nice unusual piece. Unfortunately the anti gravity feature didn't apply to the driver. They so often go missing.

From the comments, I assume that some Members see the photographs inverted (which is how they were sent to me originally). However, on my laptop, after resizing and rotating using Paint, they display the right way up, both in the folder and in this post.
I've had this issue before. Does anyone know how to resolve it?

OK for us in the southern hemisphere - guess you northerners will just have to turn your computers upside down or do a headstand.

Had a look online and came up this:

Images might display sideways or upside down after uploading them to your website thanks to the picture being taken on a phone or camera that is in landscape mode. While most image viewers will automatically rotate the image to the correct orientation when viewing it, most internet browsers do not.

In order to change the orientation on an image, you will need to open the picture in a dedicated image editing software, rotate it to your desired orientation, then save the image and re-upload it onto your website.

Note: Microsoft Paint, Microsoft Image Viewer, iPhoto and Preview (Mac) are not able to change image origination.

Good technical explanation here.
I think I've stripped the EXIF value from this photograph. Does it still display inverted for some Members? (If the problem has been resolved, I'll post details of how I did it.)

It's Windows/Apple thing: Windows doesn't read the orientation metadata but Apple devices do.
