Images and the media library

You pick images from the media library, which they reach in four ways: Library, Upload, Unsplash and AI Generate. You can upload JPG, PNG, GIF and WebP images up to 10 MB. Open the media library from the editor when you change an image, or in Settings on the Media library tab.

Picking an image

On a block's image, click pick or replace image. The media library's tabs:

• Library – images already uploaded; search by name or alt text.
• Upload – drag images in or browse. JPG, PNG, GIF and WebP files can be uploaded, up to 10 MB; HEIC phone photos are converted to JPG.
• Unsplash – search free photos.
• AI Generate – describe an image, pick a ratio and a style. The site's voice profile is taken into account. This uses credits; if the team switched it off in Demona's AI settings, the tab cannot be used.

Alt text and decorative images

Give every image Alt text: screen readers read it out, and search engines use it to understand the image. If the image is only decoration, mark it Decorative image – then no alt text is needed. AI can write the alt text too (Generate alt text).

Focal point

With Set focal point you drag on the image to mark which part stays visible when the block crops it (for example on a phone).

Crop and rotate

Crop and rotate works on JPEG, PNG and WebP images: crop to a ratio, rotate, flip. There are two ways to save:

• Save as new image – the original and the pages using it stay unchanged;
• Save and replace everywhere – every use switches to the new image, and the original is deleted.

Keeping it tidy

• Folders: New folder, subfolders, rename, move. Moving changes nothing on the pages; deleting a folder moves its images to the parent folder, no image is deleted.
• Show only unused filter, and one button deletes every image that is not used anywhere.
• Before deleting, the media library asks you, and tells you if the image is in use somewhere – a broken image would be left there.
