You need to set the points of the graphic. The most amazing things can 
be done with graphics with this method. Geoff Canyon, of this list, made 
a whole animated shoot-out game using a *single* graphic.

You really should go look up the clock threads in the archives. It's a 
common project. Someone sent me a clock they made a couple of years ago 
that was just gorgous, doing exactly what you describe. I can't share 
it, as it isn't mine and it was a private exchange. If he's still on the 
list, maybe he'll respond.

Look at some of these in the mean time, there are probably some pointers:
