Spinning Coin

**KrisD** · 19 August 2008, 09:05 AM

Hello all, my names is Kris & I am not only new to this Forum but also new to Xara.
Please could anyone give me some advice on merging 2 jpegs so that they spin as one!
ie, I have a picture of the front of a coin & a picture of the back but I would really like to get the coin to spin showing both sides.
I seem to be running round chasing my tail at the moment so any help would really be appreciated.
Thanks in advance
Kris

welcome Kris. I see you've managed to find the main spinning coin forum. If you get stuck get back to us in this thread.

As I said in the spinning coin thread "Make sure you activate the show/hide cursor - [a|b] - before you paste the second circle in."

Than you Guys, I think I've more or less got it sussed but the coin image is very dak once it's overlaid.
What is the best way to turn the brightness up please?
Thanks once again
Kris

Assuming that the image is OK to start with, adjust the lights (positions and colours) as necessary until you get it looking right.
