Photos are an essential part of any design, so knowing your options for uploading photos is crucial. In the PosterMyWall editor, there’s plenty of ways to find and use photos in your designs. Watch the above video, or read this blog post to learn more:
Add stock photos
Add stock photos by heading over to the PosterMyWall editor. Then:
- Click the ‘Photo’ button on the left selection bar.
- Click ‘Add Stock Photo’.
- Type your search keyword in the search box, such as ‘man’, ‘school supplies’, etc.
- Browse through the search results, and double click your preferred photos to add to your design.
You can pick from stock graphic libraries by GettyImages, Pixabay and Storyblocks.
Note: Images with GettyImages stock graphics contain a large watermark if downloaded free and if you’re on the Premium or Premium Plus plan, the high-res download will cost 1 Credit (3 if your design is a video).
Add from your photos
Add your own photos by heading over to the PosterMyWall editor. Then:
- Click the ‘Photo’ button on the left selection bar.
