I'm looking for a simple way to create a rotating image for a website I am putting together. I've searched online, but have only found PC applications that can do this. I'm sure there is something out there for the Mac, but I haven't stumbled upon just yet. Can this be done in Photoshop 7 or do I need an animation program of some sort?

Thanks for the help...
Just my $.02 :-)

By rotating image do you mean an animated .gif?

If so it is possible to make one using "image ready" which I believe is bundled in with Photoshop.

Do you want to have a page that loads a different image each time it is viewed, or an animated image?

Sorry for the lack of clarity, but I'm looking for an animated .gif file. By rotating, I mean spinning.

Do you know the steps I need to take in order to do this? I'll try and see if I can find something online. Thanks.

......click on the bottom thingy on the toolbar (or whatever the thing is that includes the paintbrush and selection tools), looks like a box with an arrow on the left, the right box has an photoshop "eye".

That should open up "image ready" and a box thingy with animation as a choice, you basically drag each frame of your animation there or something, check out the photoshop tutorials for a better description.
