you could have the .jpg’s in an array… 🙂

```auto
var imgs = ["image1.jpg", "image2.jpg", "etc", "etc"];
someMovieClip.loadMovie(imgs[Math.floor(Math.random()*imgs.length)]);

```

I just checked that tute, and it’s slightly wrong.

there’s a line somewhere that says  
[AS] choice = math.round(math.random()\*5)[/AS]

that should be changed to:

[AS] choice = math.floor(math.random()\*6)[/AS]

Senocular says why [here](http://www.kirupaforum.com/forums/showthread.php?s=&threadid=11686&highlight=math.round).
