  2. Under “Search”, you can search and select an image from the University’s image database, Mediabanken. The easiest way to search among available images is to go to Mediabanken, find the ID number and paste it in the graphic design tool search field.  Always check that you have the right to use the image. You can also choose to upload your own image.
  3. After selecting an image, there are some settings you can make.
