Sweet! My replacements have shipped. And they didn't make me destroy the damaged one. Woot!
I don't know what that last word means, but I've heard our friends across the Atlantic use it.

They generally seem to do that if the part is already damaged and you sent them photos of the damage. At least in my experience.
They generally make you destroy it or let you keep it?
Well, good for us!

Keep it! It happened with a couple of things. I was happy it happened with the CatWoman Goggles. Mine broke on one of the arms, so I got a replacement from SS and that is currently safe and sound in the box while the broken one remains displayed.

I have decided to display my "reveal" head backwards in my display case. The scar is more powerful than the head sculpt and holds the mystery of ESB.
Nice display there, Bo.

Cool. All I've been hearing about for some time now is how you have to destroy things to get a replacement. So now I have two Vader heads....

Ummmm.... I think it looks pretty good.

I've seen more and more upside down pics happening, my own did it last week in grievous thread. I'm not technically geeky enough to know why.

"Okay, which one of you wise guys turned off the gravity flux compensator?"
Sideshow is replacing my Helmet (was missing a tusk) and cod piece that became unglued. There was no instruction to destroy them so I am really happy!

Depends where you are getting the image, photobucket or your computer. You can edit on photobucket before posting.

Upside down images mean the source image is upside down (and/or flagged to be upside down). Picture orientation depends on how you've held your camera/device and whether or not it has an orientation sensor. Using that picture also requires that the app it's being imported into also support the orientation flag to allow correcting for portrait or upside down camera positioning. Most camera have a sensor and the iPad definitely does. If you shoot with the iPad in any orientation with the body of the device in a vertical orientation, then the sensor will do its job and the image orientation will be properly recorded. If you tilt the iPad enough that it's near flat then you might trigger the sensor to register a different orientation than the one you're shooting from.
Before posting the pictures, open up the Photos app and look at them. You'll see which ones need correcting and you can rotate them in there after picking the EDIT option. Save back replacing the original and when you later post with Tapatalk (or whatever) it will be "fine." If the images already all appear correctly, it means that the app you're bringing them into does not support the orientation flag, possibly even stripping it when handing over the image to a web server. In this case you'll also want to manually rotate the image in a photo editor and save it back.
Besides this, there's only one UP on all camera sensors, on the iPad it's probably with the home button to the right, just like on the iPhone. Any other orientation is sensed and flagged in the photo when the image is recorded. You can alternately use different photo software like Camera+ that saves an already rotated photo without the need for the EXIF rotation flag.
