How to Move Image to Background in Google Slides

Why This Matters

Moving an image to the background transforms it from a moveable object into a fixed canvas element that stays put while you arrange other content on top. This creates cleaner, more professional-looking slides where your text and graphics appear seamlessly integrated with the background design. Beyond aesthetics, background images won't accidentally shift during editing or get selected when you're trying to work with foreground elements. You can also apply the same background across multiple slides for visual consistency throughout your presentation.
