Random images.

[Sidecar Doug]

I've seen this on other forums. And since we're always changing the pics in our avatars & signatures, we could have them constantly changing.

The code they use is something like this: http://www.mysite.com/signature1, 3.gif
This will select signature1.gif, signature2.gif or signature3.gif

I don't know how to write code, but hopefully someone here does.

image = new StringArray(10)

image[5] = '5.gif'
image[6] = '6.gif'

image[8] = '8.gif'
image[9] = '9.gif'

var ran = 60/image.length

function ranimage() {
currentdate = new Date()
core = currentdate.getSeconds()
core = Math.floor(core/ran)
return(image[core])
}

document.write("<img width='xx' height='xx' alt='' src='" +ranimage()+ "'>")

</script>

It all looks Greek to me, but maybe someone here can figure it out. :blink:

This would require allowing HTML code to be used in signatures. vBulletin strongly advises against this practice due to security and hacking issues...

It is basically creating an array that contains 10 images. Then it has a function that comes up with an index value of 0 through 9 and then displays that image from the array of previously stored images.

I am sure a real programmer can be more exact than that.
