    The code snippet below will pick up a random image from the server and sends it to the browser.
    Try it out.

    PHP:
    <?php
       
    if($_GET['folder']){
          
    $folder=$_GET['folder'];
       }else{
          
    $folder='/images/';
       }
       
    //path to image dir
       
    $path $_SERVER['DOCUMENT_ROOT']."/".$folder;
       
    $files=array();
       if (
    $handle=opendir("$path")) {
           while(
    false !== ($file readdir($handle))) {  
                     if (
    $file != "." && $file != "..") { 
                     if(
    substr($file,-3)=='gif' || substr($file,-3)=='jpg'$files[count($files)] = $file;
                     }
           } 
       }
       
    closedir($handle); 
     
       
    $random=rand(0,count($files)-1);
       if(
    substr($files[$random],-3)=='gif'header("Content-type: image/gif");
       elseif(
    substr($files[$random],-3)=='jpg'header("Content-type: image/jpeg");
       
    readfile("$path/$files[$random]");
     
    ?>
