Default Banner selector needed

I'm looking for a mod - and can't seem to find one - that allows me to select what banner to display, selected from a group of different banners.

I have about 20 or so banner graphics I've made up over the years, and like to rotate them from time to time. The only way to do that now is to go to an HTML page I have that displays them all, get the file name of the one I want, login to admincp, go to styles, go to the text box where the banner is located, and change it. Easy but a lengthy process to do something so small.

Is there a mod where I can just dump all my banner graphics into a folder, have it display the contents of that folder and select one of the images? (and once selected, that's the one that's shown at the top from until I change it again).

I'm not looking for a banner rotator that changes it every X reloads, just something easy where *I* can select the banner to show.

If you're just going to select one banner from time to time why not just hard code it in the template and just change the file name as you see fit. Just name them like banner1.gif, banner2.gif, banner3.gif, etc... and you only need to change 1 character.

Right now I DO that. I have them all like that and just change the filename in the style.

But I need a mod that SHOWS me the banners first so I can pick which one I want.

Right now I have them all in an HTML file which I look at, pick which one, look at the filename, go to AdminCP page, log in, go to styles, select the style, scroll down to banner filename, and change the # on it. I could use the method of changing the filename itself instead of the filename listed in the style, but it's basically the same amount of work, and I like my banners using a specific filename structure that tells me when they were made (YYMMDD-banner.jpg)

I need a mod that is only avail. to admins (or whatever) that I can just go to, it shows me all of the banners with a radio button or something next to each one, and I select which one to use. Done.
