Is there a way to rotate an image around it's center of mass? I teach statistics, and one of the definitions of the mean is that it is the balance point of a distribution. I'd like to actually show a distribution "balancing" back and forth, or actually spinning around its mean. But, if I take an image of a very skewed distribution of scores (long tail) and tried to rotate it, it would rotate around the center of the /image/, which would not necessarily be the mean of the distribution. I image that the solution involves extending the size of the image so that it is now centered on the mean, but without altering or moving the actual distribution. In BlueMango's Clarify, after you take a snapshot, you can extend the size of the image without stretching the picture. I would need a way to do that programmatically so that the horizontal center is the mean of the distribution. Any suggestions??
