does anyone know where i can find a script to make a web photo randomizer like the one at the bottom of this page? each time you reload the page, the script displays random jpegs from the assigned folders.

It's funny you mentioned it, just last night I purchased (via download) a
product called El Scripto which is a plugin for FrontPage. It has 50
plugins one of which is a picture randomizer. I purchased it for the popup
windows.

I am just assuming you are using FrontPage. You may also want to visit
the FrontPage third party plugins page...just a sec and I will post them
here for you.....................................ok I'm back here they are..

Hope this helps!

If you want to do it yourself

Better, with a JAVA applet. Many out there that include transitions, etc.

For example a new image each time

I've used this one:

Best... use Flash. Then you can do anything you want even have 360 degree rotation of a single image or interactive hot spots.
