# Images

Description: Add an image tile to a worksheet, for a logo, a diagram or any other picture.
An image tile places a picture on a worksheet, next to your charts. Use it for a logo, a diagram, or anything else that gives a sheet context without being data.

## What it is

An image tile starts empty. You add it like any other tile, then upload a picture into it. The tile holds one image, and it can be moved and resized like a chart.

## When to use it

* You want a logo or a title graphic on the sheet you present from.
* You want a diagram that explains something the charts cannot, such as a process or an org structure.
* You want a picture as a visual anchor on a dashboard.

For text rather than a picture, use a text tile instead. Both are listed under **Others** in the chart type selection. See [Chart Types](/chart-types/).

## Configuration

1. Open the sheet you want the image on.
2. Add a chart and find the **Image** option under the **Others** group of the selection.
3. The selection closes and an empty tile appears on the sheet.
4. Click **Upload Image** in the middle of the tile.
5. Choose a file from your computer.

| Requirement           | Value                                                       |
| --------------------- | ----------------------------------------------------------- |
| **Formats**           | `.png`, `.jpg`, `.jpeg`                                     |
| **Color space**       | RGB. CMYK is not supported.                                 |
| **Maximum file size** | 1 MB                                                        |
| **Resizing**          | Images wider than 3840px (4K) are scaled down to that width |

## Good to know

* **A CMYK file will not upload**, even in a supported format. Convert it to RGB first. This catches print-ready logos most often.
* **1 MB is the hard limit**, so a large photograph usually needs compressing before it will upload.
* **GIF is not supported.** The file picker offers PNG, JPG and JPEG only. Convert an animated GIF to a still PNG first.
* **Images are not data.** Nothing in an image tile updates when a scenario or the model changes.
