[up][up] @ Septimus Heap: If you wanted to allow new entries, but lock out the picture. Or lock out selected sections, like the description. Probably would need something like wikipedia, with Edit buttons on sub-sections; so I'm guessing no.

EDIT: too slow to the post.

Installed. I wonder how many people will notice?

Add "Is it just me, or is there something odd about the page image?" as a stinger?

Is there any way to tweak how fast it changes? As is, I can scroll up faster than it's cycling.

EDIT: Wait, now it's working as fast as the forum avs were. I'm using Fire Fox, anyone noticing a lag in other browsers?

[up][up][up], [up][up] - We were talking earlier about listing it as an example in the 'Other' section, to be less obtrusive than a stinger would be.

This isn't really the kind of thing where we want to show off how clever the trick is. It ruins the effect. :P

Take a look at the page now. I've added it to Other, and re-bulleted the "In the TV Tropes forum" example.

Although "Is it just me, or is there something strange about this page's image?" or "I could have sworn the page image was different a minute ago..." as a stinger would also work.

It looks well, even if it's a bit subtle.

Everybody ok with where I placed and how I worded the pointer?

Fine for me. Should this page be indexed on Self-Demonstrating Article?

Then is this lockable? I think we're done here.

Hmmm... is the image always changing in the same order for anyone else, instead of being random?

Yeah, this is ripe for morguing.

[up][up] That does appear to be the case, but I'm not that fussed about it.

I would like it better if it were randomised. :/
