>>>Why can't things just be simple. You put a rectangle on a form and you rotate it. Oh, well PolyPoints for 100 dining room tables it is, that is unless you are going to tell me that I can't have 100 arrays.

>>I made an interesting discovery in playing with the PolyPoints. I'm not sure why, but I thought they were an absolute measurement, like pixels or something. Turns out they're a percentage of the size of the shape dimensions. Made an analog clock just to play around with them a bit and the rotation.

Yes, as soon as I realized that it wasn't absolute coordinates, it made all the sense in the world that it would allow resizing that way.
