If you have Photoshop or another similar program, add a layer and flatten it.
To do this go to "Layers/New/Layer from background/OK" then "Layers/flatten image" and save it. That seems to work. Photos taken on smartphones, tablets and some cameras can look Ok the device but appear upside down or sideways when uploaded to a web page. This is because the device stores the image's orientation in something called the EXIF metadata - and not all software is able to read this.
With a phone, always shoot in landscape format. If the picture appears sideways or upside down when posted, go to the device's edit function, try a small crop of the picture, and save it. That sometimes works - but I've no idea why...
