What I would do is store a copy of the original image and every time the user rotates it, they are actually rotating an image that is never been touched. This is an ok solution if you do not have many big image files laying about. You could store them off on the hard drive in a temp area. This would save on memory but would have a minor hit in performance each time the file is loaded back in. Did you try the script I posted for you on rotating polygons? That should have done it if that is all you want to rotate. Save the rotate command for images only if you can. -Mark Talluto
