I have a set of 3 splash pages rightnow but i am thinking of making 10 and load them randomly whenever page is refreshed or a person visits the link, I know its possible as i have seen it on [teamphotoshop.com](http://teamphotoshop.com), [size=1][color=silver]they dont have it anymore[size=2][color=black] Does anyone know how to do that, i know its some java script but i cant find it anywhere.[/color][/size][/color][/size]

just a rough design as none of them are final rightnow, its my readymade garment showroom website, we are opening one branch in uk very soon too…

Best Regards  
Jas

where did you get the babe from splash1 from :drool:

looks good but you were looking for critics weren’t you?!

I think the sign (the blurred red part) could get a workover

plus several smaller things:  
you could make the sign sharp and the people in the back a little blurred (like the motion blur in pic one or some gaussian blur) so that the sign is kind of “in the focus” of the camera while the rest of the image is in the back.

splash3 doesn’t really fit to the sign. maybe you should adjust it to the drawing

```auto

<HEAD>

<!-- 
var howMany = 2; // max number of items listed below
var page = new Array(howMany+1);

page[0]="first-random-page.html";
page[1]="second-random-page.html";
page[2]="third-random-page.html";

function rndnumber(){
var randscript = -1;
while (randscript < 0 || randscript > howMany || isNaN(randscript)){
randscript = parseInt(Math.random()*(howMany+1));
}
return randscript;
}
quo = rndnumber();
quox = page[quo];
window.location=(quox);
 -->
</SCRIPT>
</HEAD>

```

That should do. 😃

You’ll have to change this one too:

```auto

var howMany = [color=red]2[/color];
 
 

```

Change it to the number of random pages you want to have.

even if they let you download the image as a wallpaper or whatever, it dosent mean they’re royalty free ;). I would e-mail the guy and ask permission :).

Kill the margin stuff in your body-tag and it will work.  
(Don’t know why, but it does for me :D)

I fixed that in the files attached to this post.
