[css] Spin or rotate an image on hover

I want to find out how to make a spinning or rotating image when it is hovered. I would like to know how to emulate that functionality with CSS on the following code :

img {_x000D_
  border-radius: 50%;_x000D_
}

<img src="http://i.imgur.com/3DWAbmN.jpg" />

here is the automatic spin and rotating zoom effect using css3

#obj1{
    float:right;
    width: 96px;
    height: 100px;
    -webkit-animation: mymove 20s infinite; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
    animation: mymove 20s infinite;
    animation-delay:2s;
    background-image:url("obj1.png");
    transform: scale(1.5);
    -moz-transform: scale(1.5);
    -webkit-transform: scale(1.5);
    -o-transform: scale(1.5);
    -ms-transform: scale(1.5); /* IE 9 */
    margin-bottom: 70px;
}

#obj2{
    float:right;
    width: 96px;
    height: 100px;
    -webkit-animation: mymove 20s infinite; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
    animation: mymove 20s infinite;
    animation-delay:2s;
    background-image:url("obj2.png");
    transform: scale(1.5);
    -moz-transform: scale(1.5);
    -webkit-transform: scale(1.5);
    -o-transform: scale(1.5);
    -ms-transform: scale(1.5); /* IE 9 */
    margin-bottom: 70px;
}

#obj6{
    float:right;
    width: 96px;
    height: 100px;
    -webkit-animation: mymove 20s infinite; /* Chrome, Safari, Opera */
    animation: mymove 20s infinite;
    animation-delay:2s;
    background-image:url("obj6.png");
    transform: scale(1.5);
    -moz-transform: scale(1.5);
    -webkit-transform: scale(1.5);
    -o-transform: scale(1.5);
    -ms-transform: scale(1.5); /* IE 9 */
    margin-bottom: 70px;
}

/* Standard syntax */
@keyframes mymove {
    50% {transform: rotate(30deg);
}

<div style="width:100px; float:right; ">
    <div id="obj2"></div><br /><br /><br />
    <div id="obj6"></div><br /><br /><br />
    <div id="obj1"></div><br /><br /><br />
</div>

Here is the demo

Here is my code, this flips on hover and flips back off-hover.

CSS:

.flip-container {
  background: transparent;
  display: inline-block;
}

.flip-this {
  position: relative;
  width: 100%;
  height: 100%;
  transition: transform 0.6s;
  transform-style: preserve-3d;
}

.flip-container:hover .flip-this {
  transition: 0.9s;
  transform: rotateY(180deg);
}

HTML:

<div class="flip-container">
    <div class="flip-this">
        <img width="100" alt="Godot icon" src="https://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/thumb/6/6a/Godot_icon.svg/512px-Godot_icon.svg.png">
    </div>
</div>

Fiddle this

if you want to rotate inline elements, you should set the inline element to inline-block first.

i {
  display: inline-block;
}

i:hover {
  animation: rotate-btn .5s linear 3;
  -webkit-animation: rotate-btn .5s linear 3;
}

@keyframes rotate-btn {
  0% {
    transform: rotate(0);
  }
  100% {
    transform: rotate(-360deg);
  }
}

It's very simple.

1. You add an image.

2. You create a css property to this image.

   img { transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out 0s; }
   

3. You add an animation like that:

   img:hover
   {
       cursor: default;
       transform: rotate(360deg);
       transition: all 0.3s ease-in-out 0s;
   }
