Managing your backgrounds
note:
If you are a Basic user or use Classroomscreen without an account, you can still upload backgrounds to use on your screen - they just will not be saved.
Upload backgrounds
In the dashboard, you can upload GIF, PNG, and JPG files (up to 25 MB) by dragging your images into the upload area or by clicking on the purple 'Upload your files' text link. From the background widget, you can click the '+' button.
Edit backgrounds
From the widget settings, you can click 'Manage uploaded backgrounds' to modify the images in your dashboard. If you select a background, you can adjust the display (rotation and border) or delete the image by pressing the trash can icon.
tip:
You can use the icon with arrows to set a border on your uploaded backgrounds; you can choose between white, gray, dark gray, or blur. When the image has no borders, it appears to cover the screen completely.
Sort backgrounds
The background images can be sorted in your dashboard; just click and drag them around to reorder your display based on preference.
Starred backgrounds
If you have a Basic or Pro account, you can click on the 'Star' to mark a background as a favorite. The backgrounds that you star are then placed above all other images in the widget screen, so you can quickly find your favorites without having to scroll.
Managing your images
When you activate the Image widget, files can be easily uploaded to your screen. By clicking on the settings, once the widget opens, you can manage any pictures you want to display on your screen.
note:
Pro users can store up to 800 images in their account that are automatically saved for later use.
Upload images
Via the widget settings, you can upload images and access the images that have already been uploaded. Drag and drop a file or click the 'Upload your files' text link to get started!
important:
Supported image files include GIF, PNG, and JPG files (up to 25 MB).
Edit images
You can click on the double-sided arrow at the bottom of the widget to spin it around! This way, you can modify the angle of display for an image, anywhere from 0 - 360 degrees.
Deleting images
If you want to delete images from your account, click on the 'Enable' button at the bottom of the settings panel. Once enabled, a trash can icon will appear on each picture, and you can click on it to remove an image.
