Hi Chas,
I'm impressed. It's pretty nifty isn't it. I notice that some of my
customer's web sites have got images next to them but mine hasn't.
Thinking on why that might be I've decided that it's probably down to the
use of ALT tags on your images, i.e. putting rollover ALT tag text into your
images on the site. Needless to say I've just gone and added alt text to my
spacehoppa.com logo... what an oversight eh!
I could be wrong, but it may well have something to do with how they choose
which graphic to include.
