How to Change the Picture in PowerPoint

Use this interactive demo to learn how to change the picture in your PowerPoint presentation.

‍

It is very easy to change the picture in PowerPoint. Here’s a short tutorial on how to do it in simple steps:

  1. Inside the slide canvas of your PowerPoint presentation, find and select the picture you wish to change.
  2. Following that, go to the top menu bar and click 'Picture Format'.
  3. Find the 'Change Picture' option, then click the drop-down arrow next to it.
  4. Subsequently, choose the source and then select the new picture you want to use.
  5. Finally, the selected picture in your PowerPoint presentation will be changed according to your input.

📌 Why this matters

Changing pictures lets you refresh outdated content, fix image quality issues, or swap in more relevant visuals without rebuilding your entire slide layout. Beyond simple replacement, this technique preserves all your careful positioning, sizing, and formatting work. When you're working with branded templates or complex slide designs, maintaining the exact placement and proportions of visual elements becomes crucial for consistency across presentations. This approach saves significant time compared to deleting and reinserting images, especially when you need to update multiple slides with similar layouts.
