Hi Manchini,

You can try the Ad Banner Rotator available on the Extra Tools toolbar in Blue Voda. See my homepage for an example. I'm going to replace it very soon with something else.

What is your definition of rotating? The Ad Banner Rotator will display one pic after the other. If you want a "Spinning"picture, than this will not be a good idea to use the Ad Banner Rotator. It will be much better to use a Flash or SWF Slideshow generator. Search for slideshow generators or or slideshow builders on Google.

There are some other effects here http://www.dynamicdrive.com/dynamicindex4/index.html

Hi Manchini,

This is very easy if you follow these steps:
1. First prepare your pictures in terms of pixel size, etc. See this explanation by Collectors-info. Photo, image, resizing & naming tips.
2. Click the Ad Banner Rotator button. A square empty box will be displayed and also a dialogue window prompting you to select one or more files.
3. Browse to the folder containg the pictures you have prepared.
4. Select the first picture.
5. Press and hold the Ctrl key and select the second and third pictures.
6. Release the Ctrl key.
7. Click the open button. You will now only see one of the pictures on your page.
8. Double-click the picture.
9. If necessary, scroll to the right to see the file names.
10. Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to order the required sequence.
11. Set the Puase Time (seconds). (You can experiment with this value).
12. Click the OK button.
13. Preview you page. It should work just fine now.

Let me know if you got it right.
