The name for the file is randomly generated after you upload it, and that link represents nothing but a truncation of a real file path. You can do that easily by writing a little htaccess file:

Code:

RewriteEngine On

RewriteRule ^~([a-zA-Z0-9])$ /some/path/on/server/script.php?process=$1

...for example. Get your script to work correctly first, and after that you take care of the urls. But to make it easier, don't hard code them (the urls).
