You think that's long?  Looks pretty short to me.  If you want it even
shorter you can make a DTML method that contains your snippet, and then
call the method:

<dtml-var theWrapperMethod>

Remember that due to acquisition, your snippet of code will work
anywhere in zope without needing to change it (as long as the Images
folder is in the root folder).
