Rotating circles out of the plane of the page

How do you rotate circles OUT OF the plane of the page(i.e., around an axis in the plane of the page) WITHOUT turning each of them into spheres with shading. I want to create a rendering of various intersecting "great circles" on a sphere (a great circle passes through the center of the sphere). The only thing I've found so far in Photoshop 7.0 is Filter>Render>3D Transform, and when I use it, EACH circle turns into a its own sphere with shading and perspective. I want to be able to rotate circles so that they all look like they're on the same sphere, but without each circle turning into a separate, shaded sphere.
