 Replying to [comment:5 nacin]:
 > I think this code would rotate the image on every page load until a
 header is chosen from the admin, versus simply provide the install with a
 single default header chosen at random from the 8 images?

 Other way around.  crc32 is an old school hashing algorithm, not a random
 number generator.  The code hashes the site_url(), then grabs a header
 image based on the hash.  Same header for every page load.

 Caveat: the current patch doesn't set a scheme in the site_url() call so
 you'll have a different (but consistent) header for each scheme (http,
 https).
