The plugin works perfectly as it should.It would be nice to be able to display randomly several images.I can do it by using several times the widget, but then the same image may be displayed more than once.

Worked for me. I used this to create an advertisement banner in the footer section. Each time when you refresh the page, you will get a new image.

Got it working but not 5 stars because I couldn't work out the syntax for image name plus image link. A screenshot example would be nice.
