When cropping avatar photos for contacts, positioning the cropped area of the photo is inverted. I find this really annoyong as it makes it hard to position the desired area quickly. I cannot think of a reason why Nokia would intentionally design it like this. Does anyone else think this is a bug also?

If you mean drag photo instead of drag window, then yes, it's a bit odd. Frankly, I'm way more interested in better zoom range and ability to zoom out further by inserting black bars than by having to drag reverse.
