Zoom Room Backdrops for Spectres Past
Please download to your hard drive, and upload into your Zoom Video . We will use this, and the other backgrounds, to help us define our sense of place within the mystery.
DOWNLOADING THE GAME IMAGES
To download the image, place your cursor over the image and Right Click. A dialog box will appear with “Save image as…” or something similar. Click “Save image as…” and save it to your harddrive where you will be able to easily find it. (Adrienne likes to save them to her computer’s desktop. :})

UPLOADING THE GAME IMAGES INTO ZOOM
NOTE: if you do not see these options in your Zoom Client, it may be that your computer is not able to support virtual backgrounds.
Once you are logged into Zoom, look for the “Choose Virtual Background”
Then find the “+” underneath and to the right edge of the video screen. Click on it.
One of two things may happen when you click on the “+”:
1) You will automatically have a screen open displaying images available to upload to your Zoom. Or,
2) You will get another dialogue prompting you to choose to upload a file.
Find the file you want to upload and click save.
