XnView Software

Windows Explorer and Windows Photos rotate the 1000x1000 image losslessly, without removing any pixels.
Couldn't XnView do the same, or is such behavior wrong somehow (against jpeg specs, maybe)?

It depends on the JPEG's chroma subsampling :

Rotations where the image is not a multiple of 8 or ...

Important improvement!

2. Open the result in XnView MP.
3. Go to Image → Edit colormap… and change all colors except red to white (#ffffff).
4. Optimize the result with PngOptimizer.

The BBCode syntax skips attributes with no values, so [x x] is interpreted as [x] . Illegal characters cause the whole thing to be ignored. You can add your own markup validation via a tag filter. Tag filters can be added via an extension. The return value of tag filters is ignored in s9e ...

For cases like this, there's the Disable BBCode option.
