AS far as I read the linked tickets and commits, this issue will be fixed with the (hopefully soon) upcoming version 3.2.2

The .jpg image can contain the original dimensions in the EXIF data. When a file is edited the software may not alter it. phpBB is reading the EXIF data instead of determining the the actual dimensions of the image. Saving as .png or .gif will strip the EXIF data. If you "save for web" or specifically remove the EXIF data in the .jpg the issue goes away.

If you want to kill three birds with one stone..... Avatar resizing, sideways image fix and semi fix for this issue you can set imagemagick in the control panel for image processing. If your server does not have imagemagick installed this will not work. This is very hackish but it fixes multiple problems.....

Find:

Code: Select all

			$file->move_file($destination, true);

After add:

Code: Select all

			@passthru(escapeshellcmd($config['img_imagick']) . 'convert' . ((defined('PHP_OS') && preg_match('#^win#i', PHP_OS)) ? '.exe' : '') . ' -auto-orient -quality 85 -geometry 120x120' . ' "/full/path/to/your/forum/images/avatars/upload/' .  $file->get('realname') . '" "/full/path/to/your/forum/images/avatars/upload/'' . $file->get('realname') . '"');
			list($width, $height) = getimagesize('/full/path/to/your/forum/images/avatars/upload/'' . $file->get('realname'));

You need to edit in the paths and where it says 120x120 that is where you will set the avatar size. Last step here is to set the file dimensions for the avatar in the ACP to some high amount.
