Uploading a Photo
One of the requirements for your CD artwork is that you take a photo and make a cutout. It doesn't have to be a new photo, but it has to be your photo. By that I mean you can't just find something from the web and us it! If you take photos on your phone you will need to move them to your computer.
Many students and adults even think that the best way to move photos is by emailing them to yourself. You do not want to do this! Email will compress the photo throwing out some of the pixels to make the file smaller. In other words, emailing it will sacrifice quality. Instead we will move them to Google Drive. This process is different on iOS and Android so check out the information for your specific type of phone. It you have evolved beyond using a phone for your photos and need to transfer them from a memory card you will find that listed too! iOS UsersThis video will explain how to move your photos from phone to drive, however, if you are using an updated version of iOS you may need to change camera to shoot in JPEG instead of Apple's own file type. So if you are going to shoot new pics, follw the steps on the second video first. You can always search for a website to convert your HEIC files afterward, but changing this first will save you some work.
