    Help on Rotating Image

    Help.

    Not usually working with graphics at all - i'm really stuck.

    A project i'm working on needs a bitmap (or JPEG) to be rotated through maybe 20degress from one side to the other, say like the wave of a flag.

    It can be a fairly simple image, but with virtually no knowledge of graphics etc in VB6 i'm very stuck and need urgent help.

    Here's hoping one of you expert graphics guys (grovel grovel) and girls can help??

    this might help

    here is a file that I down loaded just before I found this forum.

    The riple effect could well be the head start you need. while it ain't no flag it is half way there.

    you will need THIS

    you will need to modify the code to take a bmp of your choosing as it is far to big even when zipped to up load.

    And beware as bitmap rotating is slow! There is a reason why DirectX doesn't emulate it and only provides it if it is supported by hardware...
