From this explanation of yours, I think I misunderstood what you meant
by clicking an arrow to go to the next picture. I now see that you
probably meant to click it only once, and then the next pictures would
keep rolling in, automated. I was only talking about a link. A simple,
Flash / JavaScript-less link, to go to the next image.
