i’m playing around with figuring out a way to get attachment\_fu to  
rotate images according to embedded exif data. I was wondering if  
anyone had played with this, or had any ideas. I’m currently using  
the mini\_magick processor although I’m getting ready to move this  
application over to core\_image instead (in otherwords, an already  
hacked attachment\_fu).

I’m putting a link to my first attempt at doing this… I’d love to  
get some feedback, some suggestions, or pointers to some already done  
products. (why repeat what someone else might have already done).

Thanks!
