Can someone test something for me - Droid-picasa download.

Take a picture, gallery, share, upload to picasa.

On your computer, go to web albums dropbox, hit the download button and save it to your computer - see if windows can open it (windows picture and fax viewer).

I can't get it to work. File size downloads as smaller than what web albums is saying it is. I can email myself the same file and open it fine (in this method file size is retained).

I emailed the file to a nexus one user, confirmed the file was the exact same size, he saved it on his phone - gallery, share, upload to picasa, etc.. and he also can't open the picture once downloaded to his computer.

Further testing:
It only screws up portrait mode. I can open it in irfanview, rotate it and it's fine, but something in the upload/download process is hosing something.

Curious if it's just this droid, if it's repeatable, and if anyone has any suggestions.

Thanks!
