That has nothing to do with "rotate" in any Rainmeter sense, but is an animation of several images. that can be done with the meter type of "Bitmap" http://rainmeter.net/cms/Meters-Bitmap_beta or by using several separate "Image" meters http://rainmeter.net/cms/Meters-Image_beta and displaying them using RainmeterShow / RainmeterHide bangs http://rainmeter.net/cms/Bangs_beta tied perhaps to a Calc measure using "Counter" http://rainmeter.net/cms/Measures-Calc_beta, along with some IfAbove/IfBelow/IfEqual "Actions" http://rainmeter.net/cms/Measures-IfActions_beta to change the images.

Some more help on this is at http://rainmeter.net/cms/Tips-AnimatedGIF.

There are some interesting effects you can get on an image with Tranisformation Matrix http://rainmeter.net/cms/Meters-TransformationMatrix_beta | http://rainmeter.net/forum/viewtopic.php?f=15&t=812

However be aware that a 2d image is a 2d image. You can never rotate it to see the "sides" or "back" as it doesn't have them, they don't exist.
