Images may be the most important part of any presentation.
Now, of course, you should use images that are of high quality and that are impactful.
It's fairly easy to bring images into your Google Slides presentation.
Let's take a look.
I've got a blank slide here and an order to insert images, I'm going to go to the insert menu and then
some image you'll notice I've got several different options.
I can upload an image from the computer, I can search the web for an image, or I can upload an existing
image from my Google Drive from my Google Photos by its URL.
Or if I have a camera on my device, I can use that to create a new image.
I'm going to upload an image from my computer.
Now, the image I'm going to use is called Lakeside.
I'll click open, and it places the image here in my slide.
Another way to move an image into a presentation is to drag it from the desktop.
Here you can see I've got an image called Lakeside underscore zero two on my desktop right next to my
Google Slides tab.
I'm simply going to drag it from the desktop onto the slide.
And notice its place there doesn't get much easier than that, sometimes if I'm trying to work quickly,
I'll line up a whole bunch of images on my desktop and just drag them into the interface as needed.
Going back to our insert image menu, there's also the option to search the web for images.
This is going to search Google Images.
Let's search for an image of Connecticut.
And you'll lose a whole bunch of images come up and I can simply again drag an image from Google Images
into place on my slide.
And there you can see the images appeared.
You do have to be somewhat careful when you're using Google images because you don't know which images
are copyrighted and which are free for you to use.
So always check out the copyright of an image before using it.
Who will image search terms of any image you can find so you don't know that they're all safe to use?
Again, going through the insert menu, your insert image and drive.
It'll search your Google Drive for any images you may have stored there.
So if I want to use this image of our production studio again, I can simply drag it into place.
There are a lot of options for placing images inside of your Google Slides presentation.
They make it pretty easy.
The key is to use quality images that your audience is going to appreciate.
