I just think it gets pretty hairy after they get nested more than one level - functions that rely on other functions which rely on other functions are OK, but when they have to be executed in a certain order in order for them to work, gets real messy. Nothing wrong with a function that uses other functions though, certainly not - this is what a lot good class design consists of. With that said, I'm no expert either, so you can take what I said for what you think it's worth. There are tons of other people on this list more experienced than me.
>> Do I have a better way to do something like this? Weeeeelllll part'ner, I don't have time to look at your whole script and re-write it for you :) - I would have to know more about what you're trying to accomplish, because that "entire code" you published is trying to do a lot more than just show a random image. Anyway, did you get it working?
