If a picture is worth a thousand words, when you add one, you might not need any text to convey your message.

1. Click Insert > Picture.

   

2. In the Choose File to Upload box, find the picture you want to add, and click Open.

When you search for clip art and pictures online, you'll be directed to Bing. You're responsible for respecting copyright, and the license filter in Bing can help you choose which images to use.
