How to add an image rotator to SharePoint

An image rotator can be a good way to let the randomly display some images on your SharePoint site.
We for instance use it in our internal timber exchange. We display some different images of timber or the processing of timber.

SharePoint does not have a built-in image rotator, so after a little googling I found a nice solution from Christophe over at PathToSharePoint.

The rotator works by adding a script to a Content Editor Web Part that randomly displays a picture from a SharePoint picture library.
You can even add a custom onClick link for each image.

It has been made easy for you since he actually made a generator!

All you need to do is go to the following site and click on the Build your own tab and follow the instructions.

Note: Notice that the url for the picture library is for the settings page of the list.

Once you generate the script, add it to a Content Editor Web Part.
