// Put the background-images into the same folder as your webpage.
// Add the filnames of your background-images to the Array below (just replace 
// our background-images with your background-images) 
var slideurl=new Array("1.gif","2.gif","3.gif","4.gif","5.gif","5.gif")

// swapping speed (seconds)
var slidestandstill=2

// do not edit the code below
var timer
var ns4=document.layers?1:0
var ns6=document.getElementById&&!document.all?1:0 
var ie=document.all?1:0

if (ie || ns6) {
	var imgpreload=new Array()
    for (i=0;i<=slideurl.length-1;i++) {
	    imgpreload[i]=new Image()
	    imgpreload[i].src=slideurl[i]
    }
}

var i_slideurl=0

slidestandstill=slidestandstill*1000

function swapimages() {
	document.body.background=slideurl[i_slideurl]
  	i_slideurl++
  	if (i_slideurl>=slideurl.length) {i_slideurl=0}
	timer=setTimeout("swapimages()",slidestandstill)	
}

if (ie || ns6) {
	window.onload=swapimages
}
</SCRIPT>

Step 2: Open your webpage. Go to to the top of the script and replace the filenames of our background-images with your own background-images (red code below):
var slideurl=new Array("bgimage1.jpg","bgimage2.jpg","bgimage3.jpg","bgimage4.jpg")
Add as many background-images as you like!

Step 3: Go to to the top of the script and configure the speed in seconds (red code below):
var slidestandstill=2
