Choose a picture. Take or get a picture from a phone and send it to yourself via Gmail, so that you can open it up on your computer. Open Google Drive. This can be done by clicking on Google apps on your Chrome browser. Go to the left of the screen and see a red button that says “New”.
Under all of the options, find a red colored document folder named “Google Drawings.”. You should now be opened to an untitled drawing. Rename it to whatever you want it to be. Simply tap on the area written on Untitled and type your new name.
Start the editing process. Go back to your Gmail account, and open the file you sent to yourself. Find backgrounds from Google Images or Tumblr. Go to Google Images. Type in the type of background you need; For example: “Pizza background”, “Galaxy background”. Make a Samsung Galaxy background, for example. Click on the image, then right mouse click.
Press “Copy image”. Go back to your Google drawing. Right click again and press “Paste”. Your image should be on the background. To make it fit the whole page, stretch it out.
