Hi,

Is there a way to rotate a picture box? I haven't found any in MSDN library.
I'm trying to make a simple game in which the user would be able to rotate a
space ship. The only way I could think of is by using an image list with
pictures and then replacing pictures fast enough to give the user an
illusion of an animation.

Is there a better way to do what I'm trying to do?

Custom GDI+ drawing or managed directx?
GDI+ is pretty easy (I have done it after all :) ) and should be able to
do what you want.
Managed directx is slightly harder to pick up from what I understand and
I havent done any.
