If you would like to edit your asset by adding personalization, one option is to upload your own image (png, jpeg, or jpg). You can do this by creating a presentation from scratch in Google Slides or by using a preexisting Google Slides template from slidesgo.com.
Note: If you are creating your images and would like the text to match what Kyron Studio generates, we use the following fonts:
Montserrat - for headers and labels
Open Sans - for body text
Create an image with slidesgo.com
1. Navigate to slidesgo.com.
2. Search for a template that best fits your course by entering keywords related to your course. You can search specific topics (ex: Great Wall of China) or broader categories (ex: math, reading, science).
3. Scroll through the list of templates and select the one you like most, or that is most related to your topic.
4. Click the down arrow next to “Download this template.”
5. Click “Google Slides.”

7. Edit the title of the slideshow to your desired title.
