You can add Stock Images to your questions by choosing from the extensive stock image library powered by Pixabay. Stock images will display above the question on every participant's Participant View and the Presentation View.

By using stock image-based questions in a Trivia Game, you can ask your players questions like:

  • "What is this famous flower?"

  • "What is this famous landmark?"

In a Poll, you could use an image that is relevant to the different answer options that participants can vote on.

Adding a Stock Image to a Question

To choose a stock image, open up the Experience Dashboard, then go to the blue Questions tab, and select the question tab for which you'd like to add a stock image. Then, locate the Question Media box to the right of the answer area and find the Add Stock Image button with a picture icon.

Choosing the Stock Image

Once you click on Add Stock Image from the Question Media box, a blue pop-up box with a search bar and examples of popular stock images will show up. You can choose from the trending images or search for a particular one. For this example, we are searching for a "cherry blossom" stock image from Pixabay to add to our question.

Viewing Your Stock Image Question on the Participant View

Your stock image will also be shown during its attached question on every participant's mobile device on the Participant View of your Poll or Trivia Game. In case you're not using the Presentation View, your participants will still see the stock image question on their devices. It is shown above the answer options.
