QTips
- If you are using a graphic from your company’s website but you don’t know the graphic’s address (graphics will have a separate address from the page where they appear), in most instances you can get the location by right clicking on the picture and selecting properties from the menu that appears. Copy the URL out of the pop-up window of your browser.
- While creating a survey you can select a question type with graphic options or add a graphic to question text. In the dialog box that opens up, click the upload button. In the window that appears repeat one of the processes discussed above.
- If the file size is large than the file size limit for the Qualtrics Graphics Library (currently 16MB), then you will be unable to upload the image into your Qualtrics Graphics Library. You will need to host the file on your own server or use a file hosting service.
- If referencing images on someone else’s site, you must have permission first, as you would be using their bandwidth and possibly referencing a copyrighted image.
