Thanks for your help, and thanks to Robert too, but I think I didn't 
explain very well my needs.
self.image is the pointer of the clock and it is an image with 128 
height and 3 width. It is half as tall as the surface and very thin.
My center is not the center of the rectangle but it's 128,128 (the 
center of the surface). I need to have that center for every tick the clock
does.

I also must use rotozoom because with rotate I can get nothing to 
actually rotate...
Maybe a solution could be to use alpha blending and make another 256,256 
with a white pointer pictured in it, and everything else is transparent.
Then the rotation center would really be the center of the image...
I can try.

thx
