How to specify a new height and width to an Image

This one is quite easy. Change your image tag to this:

<IMG SRC="york_images/york_minster.jpg" HEIGHT="512" WIDTH="384">

The original image was 2048 pixels high by 1536 pixels wide. By changing the Height and Width, we can decrease the size of the image. The image itself will still take the same amount of time to load into a browser because we haven't changed the size of the JPEG file. All we've done is to change the height and width attributes of the IMG tag.

This, however, would not be practical on the internet, because the size of the JPEG file wouldn't change. All you'll do is use up more download time to get a smaller image. So when changing image size with the Height and Width attributes, go up in size and not down, as we have done here. If your images are too big, use image editing software to reduce the height and width.
