Tutorial: Random Image Selection in Banners

Thanks! I was extremely happy when I got it set up yesterday. :-)

I just realized I didn't check this on Windows with IE (any version), so hopefully it is working there. I'm on a Mac with Safari.

I saw on your journal Superman related things. You might be interested in one of my tags:

Neat! One of these days I'm going to have to attend - I don't live that far away. :)

I'm only a 15 minute drive away and grew up a 20 minute drive away... Provided they get good stars, it can be fun. :-)
