Why not just have an array of images and use:

<?php
srand((float) microtime() * 1000000);
$images = array('image1', 'image2', 'image3', ....);
echo $images[array_rand($images)];
?>

Or you could use javascript.

I was using it in a wordpress theme where it required it to be in css and a div

That could will cause high server load because its using GD. I would just do something like

<?php
Header("Content-Type: image/jpeg");
$images = array('img1.jpg','img2.jpg','img3.jpg');
shuffle($images);
$string = file_get_contents('headers/'.$images[0]);
echo $string;
exit();
?>
