ugly hack to switch two images

$(document).ready(function(){
      $('.menuitem-pic').hover(function() {
          picname = $(this).attr('src');
          picname = picname.substring(0, picname.length - 4);
           $(this).attr('src', picname + "_active.png");
       }, 
      function() {
         $(this).attr('src', picname + ".png");
       });
});
