hey it is not working can u help me!!!
I changed rotation into rotation_degrees now i got this error
NoMethodError (undefined method `+' for nil:NilClass):

Because rotation_degree should be initialized to 0 with the set_default callback.
You can update existing records with something like GalleryImage.update_all(:rotation_degree => 0)

is anyone with this lib yet? My image is not updating, yet it gives no error... And the image gets broken...
