How can I create a personalized background on Google Slides?

Creating a personalized background on Google Slides is a fairly simple process. Follow the steps below to customize your slides:

  1. Open your Google Slides presentation and select the slide you wish to customize.
  2. Click on the ‘Slide’ menu at the top, then select ‘Change background…’
  3. A dialog box will pop up. Here, you can choose to upload an image from your device, choose an image from your Google Drive, search the web for an image, or even use your camera to capture an image.
  4. Once you’ve selected your image, click ‘Done’. Your chosen image will now be set as the background for your slide.

If you want to set this image as the background for all slides in your presentation, click the ‘Add to theme’ button before clicking ‘Done’.

At SlideGenius, we believe that a well-crafted, personalized slide background can significantly enhance the effectiveness of your presentation. It can serve as a visual cue to your audience about the topic or mood of your presentation, and can help to keep your viewers engaged. However, it’s important to ensure that the image you choose is high-quality, relevant to your topic, and doesn’t distract from the content of your slides.

Remember, our team at SlideGenius is always here to help you with all your presentation needs, from slide design to content creation and more. Don’t hesitate to reach out if you need assistance!
