HTML is a language that the browser understands to display a document (page) You cannot convert HTML to an image. You can place an image on the page using HTML.. to create an image you need a program like Paint Shop. If you have an existing image you wish to display on a web page use the following HTML.

Using HTML to display images you use the <img> tag. To display an image on a page, you need to use the (source attribute) src= The value of the src attribute is the URL of the image (skull) you want to display on your page which means that the image you want to display must be uploaded to a server, and have a web address (URL). The URL for the image points to the location where the image is stored on the server. It should look like this: <img src="http://www.theURLfortheimage.com/Yourimage.jpg"> Broken down it means < img source = the address (URL) of the image is located / (for the name of the image) Yourimage.jpg>
