@aniyah Shortening image URLs for HTML typically involves using a technique called "URL shortening" to convert a long image URL into a shorter one. URL shortening is often used to make URLs more user-friendly, reduce character count, or simply for aesthetic reasons. Here's how you can do it:

Choose a URL Shortening Service:

There are several URL shortening services available online. Popular ones include Bitly, TinySRC. You can use these services to shorten your image URLs.

Sign Up (if required):

Some URL shortening services may require you to create an account. Sign up if necessary and follow their instructions.

Shorten the Image URL:

Once you have access to a URL shortening service, follow these steps:

Visit the URL shortening service's website.
Locate the field where you can input the long image URL.
Paste the long image URL into the input field.
Click the "Shorten" or "Generate" button.
The service will generate a shorter URL for your image.

Copy the Shortened URL:

After the service generates the shortened URL, you can usually copy it to your clipboard by clicking a "Copy" button or selecting the URL and using the keyboard shortcut (Ctrl+C on Windows or Command+C on Mac).

Use the Shortened URL in HTML:

Now that you have the shortened URL, you can use it in your HTML code to display the image. Here's an example of how you would include it in an <img> tag:

<img src="SHORTENED_URL" alt="Image Description">

Replace SHORTENED_URL with the actual shortened URL you obtained from the URL shortening service.

Test the Image:

Make sure to test your HTML code to ensure that the image displays correctly using the shortened URL.
