I need to possibly twist an image on the z axis in Javascript. Here is the deal. We have sliding effects and so forth for our company's website but there is too much sliding. We want something more unique. We could do this in flash but I was looking for a way to possibly do it outside of flash. Essentially the effect we are trying to pull off makes an image twist. Imagine you put your hand in the air. Moving it up and down is like the y axis. Left and right are the x axis. Twisting it is the z axis. Ive been looking around and assume canvas could work for this but can't find any examples that do it. Any ideas? Thanks.

more than half your visitors won't see a canvas tag.
animated GIFs would be more crossbrowser.
sounds funny, but if done right they can work darn well, and look impressive.
you can use simple, 10 year old,
image rollover scripts to change the img .src in reaction to movement.
simply animating an image width reduction and expansion looks like a turning image. if you displayed a mirror image every-other time, and perhaps a drop-shadow that also animates, the effect is a convincing 3d rotation.
Yeah I was considering animated gifs but I was curious about newer technology. For the most part, newer browsers can use Canvas. Primarily IE is the issue in which case we were going to use some type of script to overcome that. But your right, animated gifs are probably the best way to go. Any other ideas though I am still open ears. Even if I dont use it now it is good to know for the future when canvas because more popular. Thanks again,
Chuck

Hi all,
Im a little new to ASP.NET.
I'm looking to create an image viewer that zooms in, pretty common. But I
need to draw a box on the 1:1 scale image and 'zoom in' on another picture

level of zoom of course.
The help I need is how to get the target box to appear over the 1:1 scale
image. I want it to be able to be dragged to a new location in the full

Hello All,
I¡¯m using a context menu associated with some pictureboxes to provide

pasting an image from the clipboard is proving to be more difficult. These
pictureboxes are bound to an AccessDB. If the user wants to add an image,
they select an image using an OpenFileDialog:

I have a function that uploads an image and that works great. I love ..Nets built in upload, so much easier than 3rd party uploaders!

My development site is working on PHP5 and GD 1.6.2 without Freetype support. Resultantly I am not able to work with functions like imagefttext or imagettftext or the image*box counterparts either. After talking over m=with my Admin, I cannot think of installing/compiling the libraries/PHP.
So can anyone tell me a workaround for this particular code?

Hello folks,
I am unable to find appropriate documentation on the type promotion of bit-fields when using the generalised comparison operator "<=>".
The problem is that using the GNU compilers, it seems that the internal comparison operator "<=>" tries to promote arguments from unsigned to signed.
This is as boiled down as I can make it.
