Okay.... after I read your original post I went and had a play with html
(haven't done it for a while so a bit rusty). What I did was create a page
for each image (or set of images) with the META tag calling the next page of
mine. Each page then used a IMG tag with the SRC being a url for the
required picture(s). This is one simple page:
<html>
<head><title>Redirect to Page 2</title>
<meta http-equiv="refresh" CONTENT="5; url=2.htm">
</head>
<body background="bg.jpg">
<a href="index.htm">Click here to stop</a>
<br><br>
<img
src="
http://tubes.ominix.com/art/a/critters/duck-white-right-rear.png">
</body>
The "2.htm" page referenced would have a different url for the IMG src. This
way I retain control of the display and never have to take the user off
site.
Protocol would be to get the other site owners' permission to link directly
to whatever picture you wanted off his/her site.
