How can I pass information from one page to another?

I'll try to break it down. When a user clicks on a link from this page:

http://localhost/flagfootball/updateimagescroller.asp

I want to be able to store the pic name they clicked on (pic1, pic2, pic3, etc) in an ASP variable called "picnumber" on this page:

http://www.glowfishtw.com/flagfootball/updateimagescrollerbrowse.asp

Can someone explain to me how to do this? Do I pass the info in the URL name? or is there a better wat of going about this? Thanks for any help. I've included the code from my pages.
