Disappearing Images in Fields

Scott,

Played with it a little here, and the only thing that seemed to work 
was really dirty.
But what I did was:

1) Make the field non-scrolling
2) "Mask" off the bottom of the field by at least the height of the 
largest image, using another opaque field on top of it
3) Rolled my own scrollbar

Thus when the field scrolls, the image comes into focus under the 
opaque field, renders, and then pops out the top of it. Of course on 
top of all of this, you'll have to put extra blank space at the bottom 
so that it can scroll all the way, etc, etc.

It works, but it ain't something I'd wanna do more than once.

Heck, it might be easier to just trap the scrollbarDrag message, check 
for the next imageSource and just overlay the actual image in the right 
location until the mouse is up.
