Anyone got a ceiling like this?

I found it when looking at air conditioning - this guy has a 10 degree sloping ceiling, so the AC looks squint. How do people with ceilings like that hang pictures etc?
The site doesn't always work well - click shift refresh if the picture doesn't appear.

Use round or oval picture frames?

two of our "rooms" are flattish roof with
slight slope to shed rain or melting snow.
only one has anything hanging on the wall.
we used hooks in the trim at the top of the
wall and monofilament line. i wouldn't know
if it was level or not, the picture is kinda
behind the coat tree.

The "easy answer" is to shim and strap the ceiling to make it level
with new dry-wall.

Far from the least work - but still the "easy answer"

I would have thought that should be done when the house is built. Just because the roof is sloping doesn't mean the ceiling has to be.

Why are you hanging pictures on the ceiling? I hang pictures on the
wall, and the ceiling has nothing to do with it.

I looked at the link but still did not understand the comment about
hanging pictures. I hand them about eye level, not at the ceiling.
What did we miss?

The sloping ceiling makes the picture look as though it's hung crooked .

Perhaps on two walls, but not the other two. OTOH, I tend to look t the
picture, not the ceiling.

Because the picture is close enough to the ceiling so you can tell they are not parallel.
