Hi Brad.
To use an image you need to apply it as a texture on a shape in Xara3D.
0 Export your image as a 300 x 300 px transparent png
1 Create a elipse (circle) 300 x 300 px in Xara
2 Save it as spin.xar (or .web)
3 Import spin.xar into Xara3D
4 Open Colour Options 'Text' from the dropdown
5 Tick Texture
6 Adjust all other options as required
7 Export animation as a gif.
It's best to match the backgound colour so it matches your webpage colour.
I can't recall if the image is uploaded with the Xara3D file. Long time since I've opened Xara3D.
Click the image below to view the animation.
Really like the rendering, it's excellent.
