Look at that globe hoodie! How to set up a virtual background: super simple to do. If you have a Mac, in the top left-hand corner you'll have "zoom.us"; hit that and hit "Preferences". If you have a PC, it'll look like "File", then "Settings" or "File" and "Preferences". On the left-hand side, you're going to see "Virtual Background", so go ahead and hit that. By default, the virtual backgrounds are going to be off. Enable it, and then you'll have these wonderful options to use. If you have a different image that you want to use, it's as simple as hitting this plus icon wherever you have an image, click on that, and it'll open right there. If you want to turn it back off, go ahead and do that. There's a pretty neat other thing that I want to show you how to use. If you have the green screen enabled, you can also pick the color that you want it to match. Click on this thing to detect whatever color you want, and since my hoodie is all blue, I just changed my hoodie to the world.
