Hey.. I've noticed some fansites have started doing carousels to advertise DJ Perm Shows.

www.habboxlive.com do it underneath the main banner.. I was wondering how you did this and what codes you need?

Basically it's when the image changes everytime you refresh the page.

Thanks
+rep for helpers!

Im not really sure what a Carousel is in this context? if its the random banner bit though its easy and can be done with php or just js even "/

Just google it for ether, or if u want a php one i have a tut on it on me site: http://thybag.co.uk/?p=Tutorials&ind=24

Although you in this circumstance probs dont need the slef contaiend element so maybe just...


//add the images you want to the array
$stuff = array (
0 => "image1.gif",
1 => "image2.gif",
2 => "image3.gif",
);
$display=rand(0, sizeof($stuff)-1);

//output the image, here:
echo "<img src='".$stuff[$display]."' />";


would do..

I'd use one that takes all images from a directory and randomizes them, much easier to add a banner
