Google Slides is a popular online presentation tool that allows users to create, format, and edit presentations with others. One of its key features is the ability to work with images. In this tutorial, we will guide you step by step on how to join two images in Google Slides.
Step 1: Open Google Slides and Create a New Presentation
The first step is to open Google Slides. Navigate to your Google Drive and click on the “+ New” button on the left sidebar, then select “Google Slides”.
Step 2: Insert the First Image
Once you have a new presentation set up, navigate to the toolbar at the top of your screen and click on the “Insert” dropdown menu. From there, select “Image” then “Upload from computer” if you have the image saved on your device. Alternatively, you can select “Search the web” to find an image online.
Step 3: Insert the Second Image
Repeat the same process to insert the second image. Remember, you can resize and move the images by clicking and dragging the corners or the image itself, respectively.
Step 4: Align the Images
Now that you have both images inserted, you will want to position them next to each other. Click on the first image to select it, then while holding down the Shift key, click on the second image. This will allow you to select both images at once.
You can then align the images by clicking on “Format” at the top of your screen, then “Align” and selecting the alignment option that best suits your needs. You can choose to align the images horizontally or vertically.
Step 5: Group the Images
Once you have aligned your images, you can group them to join them together. To do this, right-click on one of the selected images and click “Group” in the dropdown menu. This will make both images move and resize together, making them act as one image.
Final Thoughts
Joining two images in Google Slides is a straightforward process and a useful skill to have when creating presentations. Remember, you can always ungroup the images if you need to edit them individually.
Feel free to experiment with the different tools and options available in Google Slides to create the most captivating presentations possible.
