I don't think its use is as improper as is your definition -- rotation does not mean "turn them on their sides" -- that would limit rotations to 90 degrees. :-) An image rotation of one degree (or even less) would still be an image rotation. >Image swapping is a much better term, but not really....as swapping >would indicate a trade of some sort Image swapping sounds like something that many neighborhoods tried in the 70's -- but, that lead to numerous divorces. >Replacement is about as good as swap. Hmmmm... I wonder how the term "Replacement Meet" would catch on? Oh, but wait, we're talking about the net -- so how would "Image Replacement" fit with: http://mezzoblue.com/tests/revised-image-replacement/ I wonder if the css group would look at this solution from the same perspective? >Do you pre-heat your oven?
