The Images in the Banner
Congratulations! You are one of the few to figure out that the set of three images in the banner is a link to another page, this one.
You also probably noted that there are different images in the banners of the various pages on the Plasmodiophorid Home Page. A JavaScript randomly selects one of 14 sets of images each time one of the pages is loaded. The following is information about the sets of images used in the banner.
