If you would like to use photos in your projects, you will first need to upload them to a "Photo Album" in your account. The Photo Album is simply the place that your photos are stored so that you can use them in your projects.  Make sure your file is saved in JPEG (for basic or Premier members) or PNG (Premier members only) format.  The photos you upload should be no larger than 4800 pixels in either direction, or 10 MB total.  You have the option to upload your photos inside or outside of the Studio Editor.  If you are working on a project within the editor, you have the ability to upload photos and work on your project at the same time!
