Changing a picture automatically.

-----------------------------------

Happy Valentines day!

Do you go to www.google.com regularly? If you do, you may have noticed that the Google logo changes its style on certain important days (such as holidays). Although today's Valentine's day, the Google logo still haven't changed yet as I'm typing this sentence, but I'm expecting it to change, soon. My question is: Do they change the logo automatically when it reaches a specific day? Or does the webpage maker change it manually? If it's possible to change it automatically, how?

Thanks in advance, as you can see, I'm quite new in HTML, there are already 3 HazySmoke)345s in a streak on the thread navigation page. Hope these questions don't bother you too much :D.

I believe new images are created each year by their designer, so they probably put them in semi-manually, maybe with a script to make things go smoothly.

Automatic image changes is easy with PHP, but I don't have time at the moment for sample code.
