Yes this is perfect! Thank you so much! I just found a neat little thing in my Microsoft imaging software that does this very thing!

I've made an animated gif for you out of the two pictures you posted. I've also decreased the size of the picture. You can find it here. Is this what you are looking for?

PS. I leave the picture there for one week

How about this ?

Can I set the 2 pics up so that one appears, then the other...then the 1st appears again...only allowing one picture to show at one time? and have it loop continuoulsy? I have the ability to create a set of pic's w/object turning...but i don't want to have a time hog on my hands. the pictures are for an auction, i just wanted to add a little more spice to my listing.

Thanks!
Sophie

There are programs that can make a spinning effect. One of which is called Morph. (I'll try to dig up some links in a moment. )

Basically it allows you to choose three* images, place common anchor points, and it will create realistic transitions between the three images.

* reason that you should use three is that you want a 3d style morph, rather than a 2d morph. For morphing pictures like, say, one of a cat to one of a dog, you could use two pics.

For best results, you'll want the three pictures to be shots of the doll at 45º angles to each other.

Welcome to TWF Sophie :wave:

As Zollet said you wont get it to look like it's spinning with just the two images and then if you had lots of images of its rotation you'd need an applet or something to run the photos in sequence to make it appear to rotate. What exactly is it to be used for as this will possibly determine what type of program you'd have to use to do this in and IMO each photo would have to be exactly the same size and the doll in exactly the same position within the photo, just rotated, for this to work and look anywhere near good. Also bear in mind that this may make the download time of these images quite considerable!

It's impossible to make the doll spin without more images from different angles. What you could do is have the two images fade into eachother.
