Flash using Swishmax

I've created a website using SwishMax, which is an easy to use Flash .swf creator.

I have a static picture on one of the pages that I would like to change every few seconds. I woul'd like it to work very much like the changing logos on the experts-exchange home under "Who's Using EE?".

Any suggestions?

one correction (the index must increase after the image change, not at every frame enter) :
onEnterFrame() {
_root.timer1++;
if (_root.timer1 > 120)
{
_root.timer1 = 0;
LoadImage(_root.index);

_root.index ++;
if (_root.index>5)
_root.index = 0;
}
}

oh, seems like it doesnt work without using onFrame(1) statement. So final script for Scene_2 (tested and retested and reretested) :

function LoadImage(index) {
tellTarget (("/Background")) {
loadMovie("image"add(index)add(".jpg"));
}
}
onFrame (1) {
stop();
}
onEnterFrame() {
if (_root.timer1 == 0)
LoadImage(_root.index);
_root.timer1++;
if (_root.timer1 > 120)
{
_root.timer1 = 0;
_root.index ++;
if (_root.index>5)
{
_root.index = 0;
}
}
}
