if you think of the particle (sprite) as a picture you can rotate it say around the center of the picture is that what you mean ?... if you want a particle to flip like a playing card you have to have a animated particle.

 

 

Here is what I mean

 

flip.mov

 

 

On the left by adjusting the angle I got the arrow particle to spin facing us the one on the right which is a tga sequence I made spins both ways

For sprites you set the angle to specify and the what angle you want this is at the bottom of the screen grab then you can have it spin etc

Here is a project where the first chor was used to generate a series of tgas ...(should have done 60 frames)

The second chor uses those images as sprites which are animated...(but just for the second half because I only animated 30 frames)

 

I had to specify the angle tp have the sprites drop correctly

 

This is a little rough and had one sprite pop out in the back but you get the idea
