Adding a Course Image Posted on August 22, 2019 With the new "Course overview" block, faculty can add an image that appears when courses are displayed in the "Card" view. To create your own image, create a .jpg or .png or .gif file that is four times longer than it is tall. Save it as a picture, then edit the course settings (use the command under the gear menu) and upload the image you created. In the example to the right, I used PowerPoint to create a green rectangle that measured 4 inches by 1 inch. I added a screen shot and a word art. I resized the screenshot and word art to fit inside the original green rectangle; I did leave a "margin" around my screen shot and word art). I grouped the items and saved it a a picture before uploading it as my course image.
