Are you tired of using the same old default backgrounds for your video meetings? Instead of faffing around with images, you could use custom-made Webex virtual background images like these, all for the price of your weekly coffee. However, sometimes you may end up with a stretched image just as you start a video meeting. This is because Webex auto-expands the image to fit the screen.

When using your own images for Webex virtual backgrounds, it's essential to make sure you use a photo with high resolution. If you're looking for a high-resolution background to hide your messy office, look more professional, or show off to your colleagues, take a look at the Hello Backgrounds collection.

But before you start using any image, be careful not to use something you don't have image rights for. You never know when you might get into trouble for using an image you're not supposed to. To avoid this, make sure to only use royalty-free images or ask for permission from the owner if needed.

To change your background image on Webex, follow these simple steps:

1. Click the Video tab and then Virtual Background.

2. On the right side of the screen, click the + icon and choose Add Image or Add Video.

3. To use your own image for the virtual background, tap the + icon.

4. Click the Virtual Background tab on the left menu.

You can upload a personal photo or something stock from a royalty-free website. Alternatively, you could also upload your own virtual background in Webex.

Remember to only use images that are a good resolution (so they don't look blurry) and fit the screen. With these simple steps and a few precautions, you'll be able to add a professional touch to your video meetings with custom Webex background images free of charge.
