The "rotation" is basically just a series of images pasted together.  You can use aniutil to take several images and create one image file.

depends on what you have and use.

some 'paint' the whole thing. some use progs like 3dmax. which ever way you do it, you still need to put it into a png strip. some programs will save as an animated gif, then you separate the frames and put them back as a png
