How to install a group of photos that continuously loop

I am trying to develop my first website using FrontPage 2003. I would like
to have one cell of a table that shows a group of images, one after the
other, in a continuous loop, with about 2 seconds for each photo. The
photo/image group will include ten logos or image of our top ten donors.
What is this called? Is this possible in FrontPage? Do I need to buy a
template? If so, which would you recommend?
Thanks so much in advance!
 
Thanks, Steve, for an excellent suggestion and prompt reply.

I will work on this tomorrow. I thought I was just being ignorant about
using FrontPage. If I need more help, I'll write back.
Warm regards,
Nancy

I recntly posted as script that does this.

Here is my copy - well, it is the code as installed by the person I posted
it for
Just alter the images in var slideimages1=new Array(.............)

<head>
<script type="text/javascript" >
<!--
//specify interval between slide (in milli seconds)
var slidespeed=3000

//specify images
var slideimages1=new
Array("kitchen_camerist3_resized.jpg","bath_casa_resized.jpg","1-2kitchen1_rfesized.jpg","1-3Bamboo_resized.jpg",
"bath_felicity_resized.jpg","kitchen_felicity_resized.jpg")

var imageholder1=new Array()
for (i=0;i<slideimages1.length;i++)
{ imageholder1=new Image()
imageholder1.src=slideimages1 }
var whichimage1=0

function slideit()
{
if (!document.images) return
if (document.all)
{ document.images.slide1.filters[0].apply() }
document.images.slide1.src=imageholder1[whichimage1].src
if (document.all)
{ document.images.slide1.filters[0].play() }
whichimage1=(whichimage1<slideimages1.length-1)? whichimage1+1 : 0
var blenddelay1=(document.all) ?
document.images.slide1.filters[0].duration*1000 : 0
setTimeout("slideit()",slidespeed+blenddelay1)
}
//-->
</script>
</head>

<body onload="slideit()">
<img src="" name="slide1" border=0 style="filter:blendTrans(duration=3)" >
</body>
</html>

The above code works fine when using Firefox. However, if the person
is using Microsoft Internet Explorer, and has the cache setting to
"Check for a new page: Every visit to the page", the same images will
download from the server every single time they are viewed (even
though the person is not refreshing the page). This bug in Internet
Explorer could be serious if the person has limited downloading from
their site. For instance, if someone went to the above page, and left
it open on that page, it could in a short time, download many, many
MBs from their website. I suppose this is no problem if they have
unlimited downloading. Some websites have a monthly limit though.
