                )
            )
        );              

        $loop = new WP_Query($args);
        if($loop->have_posts()) {
            while($loop->have_posts()) : $loop->the_post();
            $src = wp_get_attachment_image_src( get_post_thumbnail_id(get_the_id()), 'thumbnail_size' );
            $imageURL = $src[0];
            ?>
