Is there any way to turn a picture in 3D mode (Can this be done with sprites, or do they face the camera even if you turnEntity them)

There is a command called RotateSprite. I think it can be used for that.

OK thanks

Make sure you adjust the SpriteViewMode too.

Yes, as mentioned above, the SpriteViewMode may need to be changed. It depends on 'HOW' you wish to turn the sprite, i.e. what axis you are rotating it around. By default, the SpriteViewMode is set to Always face the camera, so effectively, you can only Rotate it to simulate a Roll relative to the camera. Pitch or Yaw changes will not work in the default SpriteViewMode.
