To insert pictures into PowerPoint, follow these steps:
-
Select the Slide: Choose the specific slide where you want the picture to appear.
-
Access the Insert Tab: In the PowerPoint ribbon at the top, click on the "Insert" tab.
-
Choose "Pictures": Within the "Insert" tab, locate the "Pictures" option. Click the dropdown arrow (if present) and select "This Device" (or similar, depending on your PowerPoint version; it may also show options to insert from online sources). This tells PowerPoint you want to insert a picture from your computer.
-
Browse and Select: A file explorer window will open. Navigate to the folder where your picture is located, select the desired image file, and click the "Open" button.
-
Resize and Position: Once the picture is inserted onto the slide, you can resize it by clicking and dragging the corner handles. You can also move the picture by clicking and dragging it to the desired location on the slide.
In summary, the quickest way to add a picture is to go to Insert > Pictures > This Device, and then select your image. You can then adjust its size and placement on the slide.
