Unfortunately Talkgraphics is not a place to come to requesting free images, spinning logos or any graphics/artwork to be produced for you.
We are here to help you learn to create images for yourself with friendly, useful guidance to suit you and your software of choice, or where appropriate, recommend the best software for the task.
There are very many great tips and tutorials available for free at http://www.xaraxone.com/html/tutorials.html which can help almost anyone achieve great results with little effort.
A list of video tutorials are availabe here:

Thats a pretty nice graphics job, where did you get it?
Thank you. theTURN is a non-profit organization that I work for and our graphic designer created it.
Can someone tell me how to make these images 3D and spinning? I have no idea how to do it! Thank you.
You need to get some software to work with. Xara3d is a cool little program that does just that, make things spin.
Here are the links to a tutorial.

Myself, I would make a 3D model of the logo which opens up all kinds of possibilities. Xara3d is rather limited in 3D graphics production but will suffice for spinning a logo.
Ok, here is a little help, I have your logo in transformed lines and curves. This is usually the main to a bitmap image (pixel) a vector graphics (lines) to make.
The rest is easy, simply copy and animate Xara3D.
The XAR file for you and a small example of animation ...
Nice work, Cmone and well explained.
Saludos,
Bob.
Thanks Bob;)
Looks like a band logo or something
Could you make this image 3D and spinning please?

Hi and welcome to the forum. The image you have posted is a raster or bitmap image. It has a white background. This image needs to be vectorised, either by tracing around the outline of the shapes using a pen tool or shape editor in a vector program such as Xara Xreme, CorelDraw, Inkscape or Illustrator, or a bitmap tracing program within the aforementioned programs or in Vector Magic. The background then has to be removed, or the whole rectangle will spin as well as the logo. These vector shapes have to be imported into Xara X3D and then you can easily make it animate.
My 2 tutorials, linked in my signature will help you do this, but no member here will do the work for you, but many will help you if you get stuck.
Saludos,
Bob.
...or you can redraw the logo using a vector program (I used Xara Xtreme) to create your vector image. This may be a lot quicker that going the handtracing route. Mine took about 20 minutes.
I didn't use the fonts in the original, so it looks a bit different, but you get the idea.
Saludos,
Bob.
TheFarShow: As Bob has said, we will help you to make your logo spin, but not to the extent of doing it for you. We can offer advice, and examples, but the next step is for you to work through the processes given in the various tutorials, and tell us how you got on.
For irregularly shaped logos like yours, the hardest part of the process takes place outside of Xara3D - taking a bitmap-based shape or shapes, and creating vector-based versions. Xara3D is vector-based, and must have a vector shape before it can do anything at all. For this you need a vector editor, one of the several that Bob has mentioned, and if you haven't used anything like that before, it can be a bit of a learning curve. Since this is the Xara3D forum, I tend not to go into any detail about how to use a vector editor, but others, like Bob, will help here, too.
And the very minimum you need to have is a full copy of Xara3D itself! The downloadable demo peppers the background with non-removable text, so any logo you export will have that background, until you buy the full version. It doesn't affect the file itself, so when you get the full version, just load the file and re-export the animation, and it will have the background you choose to give it.
Mike
he must have figured it out
how do you cut out the shape so well.
the only method i can find so far is to trace for an hour in xtreme.
Thanks! I didn't really need anyone to actually do it for me I just wanted to know how to do it for an irregularly shaped logo. Thanks for your help!
