FIND AN IMAGE

Use Chrome to find an image you would like to download to use for your sticker. Two-finger click on the image and select "Save Image As..." to download the file. It can be a file in any of these formats: .jpg, .png, .svg, or .pdf.

Give the file a good name and save it in a folder where you can easily find it again. Here, I'm saving it to Documents. Click Save
