Automatic Image Rotator

The Image Rotator from Automatic seems to offer the tasty goodness for which I've been looking:
The Image Rotator is an easy way to make an image on your website change every time a visitor reloads the page. The Rotator picks a randomly selected image from a folder you specify and displays it to your visitors.

A List Apart has this article with instructions on customizing the 4k PHP script that makes it all happen.

I've tested out the Rotator and found it works just as described. Now I just need to cook up a whole kettle of same-sized images to rotate, perhaps with the help of another freeware tool from Automatic, Dimensionizer -- a context-menu plugin that fixes OSX's rather glaring lack of easy-to-access image dimension information.
