3. rotate 8 times (each time 90�)

I'm using JDK 1.5.0_09 and JAI 1.1.3-beta.
This is my code for rotate image:
    public BufferedImage rotateImage(BufferedImage image, int angle, int x, int y) {
        if (logger.isDebugEnabled()) {
            logger.debug("rotateImage(image, '" + angle + "', '" + x + "', '" + y + "') entered");
        if (image == null) {
            logger.error("rotateImage() failed, because image is null");
            return null;
        // convert angle in radius angle
        float radAngle = (float) ((float) angle * (Math.PI / 180.0F));
        BufferedImage newImage = null;
        RenderedOp render = null;
        try {
            ParameterBlock pb = new ParameterBlock();
            // image
            pb.addSource(image);
            // rotate about x point
            pb.add((float) x);
            // rotate about y point
            pb.add((float) y);
            // rotate with radius angle
            pb.add(radAngle);
            // interpolation
            pb.add(Interpolation.getInstance(Interpolation.INTERP_BILINEAR));
            // render
            render = JAI.create("Rotate", pb);
            newImage = render.getAsBufferedImage();
        catch (IllegalArgumentException iae) {
            logger.error("rotateImage() failed", iae);
            return null;
        finally {
            if (render != null) {
                // clean memory
                render.dispose();
        return newImage;
    }Has anybody idea what is going wrong?
Best Regards,

You probably have Photoshop set up to not color manage. That is not a good idea. Look
