In this CSS gallery:
http://www.dynamicdrive.com/style/csslibrary/item/css-image-gallery/

its working great, but I want to have one large image that will display on the page already, before rolling over, like the first one or whatever. That way, when they go to the gallery page it isnt' just a big empty white space with some thumbnail.
thanks!
