    It would be great if the level preview thumbnail could be rotated to a different orientation. After I designed a level (Capture the Flag) I realized that the whole thing was turned around for the preview image. I would have preferred it if players were shown the view from the other side and the level opened with that orientation. However, I don't see that there currently is any way to change this.

    @Brd-Bot Hi there, actually it can be done. There are moderators in this forum who have a private software that can do that trick. One of them also helped me in doing so for my level Mission Impossible #1. The sad thing is only they can do it and you will have to get into contact with them and send them your level pic. Hope i provided some assistance.

    I'm guessing they just paste a screen shot from the right angle, in place of the level image in the official thumbnail. Then the level will not load in that angle (which isn't a big deal).

    Yep -- Nothing to do with pasting screenshots / special permissions as @nGord said. It's actually the joint effort of several of our professional members -- notably @Gepeto, @QuantumForce and @LarsH :D

    Yes, all the credit goes to @Gepeto, @QuantumForce and @LarsH. They are able to generate a rotated QR Code, which will load in the angle rotated in. I don't even know how they do it! It's not a small feat, @Block builder.

    @lichtfuerlau It has nothing to do with "webmaster permissions". The card image has nothing to do with this site. In fact, in the three, @Gepeto is the only Moderator. However, he (Gepeto) has kindly given us access to his software, in case he is not available. :) It is still in progress, though, so it's not available for the public.
