As the title says, why the hell is the rotation in the portrait screen so limited? I am trying to rotate the portrait to show the left side of the face/body, but the damn thing won't rotate past 90 degrees.

Am i missing something? Or does CCP only want characters to have "right side" oriented portraits?

It is restricted by bloodline. I have no idea why, but it is.

CCP changed it so the eyes must be visible.

This was to prevent portraits without faces.

EDIT: Also sometimes you need to change the pose and head position to be able to rotate the model more.

Theres a big rod in the models back which keeps getting caught on the edge of your screen.
