A design canvas in the Venngage Editor shows a cream poster with the text 'South Town Presents Fall Fest' in shades of orange, with orange decorative accents. The user clicks 'Photos' in the left sidebar and types 'fall' into the search bar. The search returns multiple images of trees or landscapes with red, orange and yellow leaves. The user double-clicks a photo that shows a bright yellow leaf in close-up against a background of a forest trail with dark trees and leaves littering the ground. The user drags the photo into position to the right of the 'Fall Fest' heading, aligning it with the other elements on the poster.

From the right hand side of the screen, a user clicks on an image of a black dog dog with a stick in its mouth, with the file name 'Upload Me.jpg'.

When the files are ready to upload, the icon and the heading turn from black to blue. The user lets the files go and they appear underneath the 'Upload Image' button, below the drop box, in the Image Uploads gallery.

Delete an uploaded image

Hover over the thumbnail of the image you want to delete in the Image Uploads gallery (open in the left sidebar).

A partial view of a design open in the Venngage Editor is focused on the left sidebar, where the Image Uploads tool is open. On the right side of the screen, the design canvas is visible with white heading text, and black and red design elements. Under the Image Uploads tool, the user hovers their mouse over an image file. A black square appears in the bottom-right corner of the image thumbnail, with the white outline of a garbage can on it. The user clicks the garbage can icon and a modal appears over the design canvas that reads 'Remove Image confirmation: Are you sure you want to remove this uploaded image from the library?' The user clicks the green 'Remove' button at the bottom of the modal, and the image thumbnail disappears from the Image Uploads gallery. The user repeats this process twice more with two other image thumbnails in the Image Uploads gallery.
