hi everybody welcome back my name is mr. Campbell from mr. Campbell rocks calm today we're going
over 2.4 editing images in the G suite Learning Center for Google Sites so this is a great thing
about images and what Google Sites allows you to do is allows you basically to grab an image from
anywhere so let's just jump into it so I'm gonna remove a section so you can see what it looks
like anywhere that you see the little mountain with the moon that is where an image is gonna be
placed and and what that looks like is it's gonna look like a grey dotted box but then when I hover
over it it's gonna be blue so this plus sign is one way that you can add an image so if I click
there it's gonna give us some options here I can upload I can select an image I can grab an image
from a drive I can also add a YouTube calendar and map so it doesn't mean that an image has to
go there it just means that's where an image can go currently right now is that Google does not or
Google Sites does not allow you to place an image within a text box unfortunately maybe that will
come in the future but as of right now they don't do that so here we're just gonna click on upload
when we click on upload it's going to basically go to our desktop and it's going to allow us to
go through all of our files to add pictures I can go to iCloud Drive I can go to documents depending
what kind of computer you're on they'll be saved in different places but I'm just going to use
this JPEG here that I created from slides and what you'll see is that this image goes here now when
we grab the corner what you'll notice is that when I drag this and move this it keeps the ratio the
same when I grab the sides or the bottom what it will do is it'll mess up that ratio and so you'll
see that you can't see all of the image that I had originally so if we go back and you'll see
that I can drag I want to see more about there okay I have those options so the other options
that you'll see when I have a picture here is I have a cropping tool when you hover over and it
tells you what you're gonna do so when I want to crop an image it's going to allow me to zoom in or
zoom out maybe I don't want the whole image and I just want a portion right maybe it's my class pet
and I really want to zoom in on my lizard's eyes or whatever I don't know I'm just think you'd have
an example that I would have so you can do that you also have the uncropped tool which basically
just takes it back to its natural size that you when you brought it in or its original size when
you click on link you can also link images to other places so if you have another page that you
want this to go to maybe you're doing a breakout room on your Google site and you have different
pages that you've created that kids need to break out and they finally click on the picture maybe
you have a bitmoji thing that you've put together and it's they're clicking on all those things you
want to have them take different places so you have a lot of different options there when you
are done right you would just hit the checkmark so the other thing is you can delete the tile or the
image when we click on these three dots we have a couple of different options we can replace the
image with an upload or select an image we can add alt text so the alt text what that does is
that gives us the ability to rename the image something else if it's being searched and you
could I would just put this as a decorative image will put apply I can also then add a caption this
is a caption right and that will show there so the other way that we can pull in images and I
am going to actually delete this image and we'll bring this section back in here again to leave
this section is we can click on images over here so when we already did upload but when we select
an image we have a lot of different options so we can you we can upload an image by a URL
obviously we want to make sure that we're not breaking copyrights or anything like that and
so let's just say I found cool images of Utah right I like this one if I left click on this
and I see the copy image address I just click there come back over here paste that URL you
see that the images right there I can insert that image right in that box and you'll see that I can
drag-and-drop you know all of my proportions are pretty good we're gonna go back there so there's
that we're gonna trash that we're gonna come back over here to images again show you some
of the other options when we click on select you can do a google image search right cool
Utah pictures and you'll see that we have some here my assumption is that it's a Google search
is that we're gonna have some copyright free images maybe not based on some of these images
let's pull that one we want to insert that one you'll see once again that image goes there we're
gonna trashcan that one we'll go back one more time click on images click on select we can do
photos so any photos that we have here right so I just finished a slideshow for our schools the
end of the year so I have a bunch of photos from students and field trips and all these different
things that the kids did putting in them in slideshow I can also pull from Google Drive
and you'll see that I have all these files like a pull from if I went to our social media folder
for this year I don't know where it's at but if I went to the social media folder I could pull
some files there again I could also do that in a slideshow if I wanted to as well so this has
been a quick tutorial using Google Sites how to edit images 2.4 again most likely you're an
educator I love you I appreciate you I'm glad you're here I appreciate what you do for kids
