I am using the [vegas slider](http://vegas.jaysalvat.com/) as a background image for a site I am building. I have it working and configured to my liking, however my end goal is to be able have a random image load every page load.

I have seen methods on how to do that separately but I am not quite sure how I would alter/add on to this existing js to implement that.

Any helpful links or tutorials or suggestions would be greatly appreciated. 

Thanks in advance.
