I assume these are separate images you run through. There appear to be 40 for the full spin around (a 1 axis spin).
First, you need to do the math. That will tell you alot. You could do a controlled 2 axis spin (spin left and right OR spin up and down). This would allow the user to move up and down only if you were at the 0 point of the left and right spin. This would require another 38 images, for a total of 78. You could do a full 2 axis spin, which would require about 1600 images per object (at 40 positions per rotation) I don't think you could do a true 3 axis spin (nor do I think you would want to) due to image count, interface limitations, and bad views of the product. I would probably look at a 2 axis spin that stops at each pole (so you can't look at the object upside down. I would also limit the number of positions on the vertical legs to 10 rather than 20 per hemisphere. This would require 400 images, rather than 1600, which is a big difference. Are these 3d models or photos? How are you currently building your spin? Swift? Plasma? 3d modeling software?
