I have created numerous images for my website which contains a gallery page. The thumbnail images have been created in Color and Grayscale versions with a mouseover toggle to make the gray image display in color when it is pointed at. Is there some code that I can put in that will do this using only one image?

I need to have a way to add or remove images from the gallery quickly and easily without too much coding involved (I'm an artist and by no means a web designer).

Anyone know how to do this?

Are you using Photoshop? If so there is a way to do it with the accompanying Image Ready program.

I think that shows how to do it.

Or you can do it with CSS. Basically, you paste the images together so that the top half of the composite image is the color version and the bottom is the B&W, and then use CSS to specify which part of the whole to display in each state.
