Step 1: Select slide type

Example: Image slide

Step 2: Add your desired GIF/Image/Video

If all done correctly you should see ‘Click here to add image’ located within your slide. Click on it and a prompt will open.

Please select one of the option as seen on the picture below:

Step 3: Fixed aspect ratio / Fill and Fit

After uploading your image or gif, you will be given the option to crop it. You also get the options 'Fixed aspect ratio' and 'Fill/Fit'.

- "Fixed aspect ratio" refers to maintaining the original proportion of the image or gif when cropping it. This means that if the original image was rectangular, the cropped image will also be rectangular with the same aspect ratio.

- "Fill" will enlarge the cropped image to fill the designated space, potentially cutting off parts of the image.

- "Fit" will resize the image to fit within the designated space, potentially leaving blank space around the image


Step 4: Finishing up / Edit or replace your image

Assuming you have completed the steps correctly, you should now be able to incorporate images, gifs, and videos into your Sendsteps presentation. In case you want to replace or remove an image, you can simply click on the icons located in the top right corner of the image and make the necessary changes with ease.
