# Change Avatar Background

{% hint style="info" %} <mark style="color:blue;">**Only users on the Premium or higher plans can change the avatar's background image.**</mark>
{% endhint %}

Test creators can add a custom background to the avatar to add their school's or institution's branding. To change the background of the avatar, click on the Background button highlighted in red below:

\
Using the drag-and-drop cue card, shown in the image below, upload the background of your choice.

<div align="center"><figure><img src="/files/eLGTFlrz44LnSPJjnLRu" alt="" width="563"><figcaption></figcaption></figure></div>

\
The uploaded background will appear behind the avatar figure, allowing you to preview how the avatar looks against the new backdrop, as shown in the image below.

\
Once you’re satisfied with the background, use the checkbox labeled **Set background for all scenes** to apply the same background to all scenes.

* If the checkbox is **checked**, the background will be applied to **all scenes** in the assessment.
* If the checkbox is **unchecked**, the background will be applied only to the avatar in the **current scene** you are editing.

After applying the changes, the avatar's new video will need to be generated.

#### Delete avatar's background

First, remove the background from the selected scene by clicking the bin icon (highlighted in red).&#x20;
