image or a picture that is already stored on the internet. So for example if you
see an image on a particular website, I will show you how to find the url of
that image, logo, or picture.

- First we must find an image, logo, or picture that we want

- Then simply hover your mouse over the image and then
right click on your mouse.

properties. See the screenshot below.
