I've actually done something similar with a database so whoever managed the
rest of the content could add new images, remove images, etc. This can also
handle alt tags and such.
It went something like this:
<cfset randomimage=RandRange(1,#QueryName.RecordCount#)>
<cfoutput>
<img src="#QueryName.ImageFieldName[randomimage]#"
alt="#QueryName.AltFieldName[randomimage]#">
</cfoutput>
I think that's right. I don't have the code to look at.
