how to use getMedia without a foreach in 4.5
I would like to create the following output
```
<ul class="picture-slides-thumbnails">
<li><a href="/common/pictures/1.jpg"><img src="/common/thumbnails/1.jpg" alt="" /></a></li>
</ul>
```
My issue is that i current code i have to getMedia uses foreach and as there an "<a href=#>" that also has an image wrapping my image the foreach wouldn't work.What would be the best way to approach this.

Thanks.

1. determine if your property has a value - to avoid a getMedia() error...
```
<xsl:if test="$currentPage/yourImageAlias != ''">
```
then create a variable that equals the file path to the image
```
<xsl:variable name="picFile" select="umbraco.library:GetMedia($currentPage/yourImagePropertyAlias,false)/umbracoFile"/>
```
finally, set your image source...
```
<img src="{$picFile}"/>
```
don't forget to close your if test...
```
</xsl:if>
```
