Hi @EnverOsmanov .

Thank you for reporting this. Unfortunately the images in VKontakte are not standard <img> HTML tags, but a link element with background-image styling property (#4). Supporting such elements properly would be really hard and it will need to offer rotating for elements, which are not actually images. That may really decrease the usability and confuse users.

I understand it would be nice if the extensions can do it, but I don't see a solution without usability regressions now. Sorry... :(
