if you plan on rotating by 90 degrees each day, then simply use modulous
math to determine to angle based on the calendar day. granted, oct. 31 will
display the image at the same rotation as sept. 1, but you have to decide if
that's important or not.

there are 4 directions if 90 degrees per day...so,

$angle = date('d') % 4 * 90;

hth,

me
