My solution... Not sure if this looks good, or what. 

/* Random # Challenge */

var num1 = prompt("Give us a number. We're going to use this to get all random and shit.");
var number1 = parseInt(num1);
var result = Math.floor( Math.random() * number1 ) + 1;
document.write("The number is " + result + ".");
var smallNum = parseInt( prompt("Please choose the minimum number for your dice roll"));
var bigNum = parseInt( prompt("Please give us the max number for your dice roll"));
var dieRoll = Math.floor( Math.random() * (bigNum - smallNum + 1) + smallNum);
alert(dieRoll);
