Garrett -

The picture was probably taken with an iPhone or some modern piece of hardware. 
 
It contains  display orientation information in the header that specifies 
rotation values.  You probably used some native Microsoft viewer on "my 
machine" 
(not specified).  These do not honor the orientation settings and always 
display 
the image in native row order.  This is why the MS BS rebuilds the file when 
you 
rotate it with something like image viewer.

Anyway, the iPhone is seeing the rebuilt file, with the rotation header left 
intact.  You must find an image tool that will strip out the header and build a 
file with native row order the way you want.  This is the only way to guarantee 
consistent display across all platforms.

Perhaps EXIFtool will do the job - I haven't tried this specific task.

Subject: Why is my JPEG Image Flipped in iPhone?

I was given an image to use on a web site I'm building.

Funny thing is, when I viewed it on my machine, it was rotated 90
degrees (quarter turn). So what I did was rotate it to the desired
orientation using Graphic Converter. Great, problem solved, I
thought.

But when I saw that "fixed" image in the iphone, I saw that it was
rotated 90 degrees. What could cause the image to appear rotated
sideways only on iPhone?
