<blockquote>Tiny Techniques are bitesized design tricks to make you a better, faster designer in Sketch. Sometimes you’ll already be doing it…sometimes we’ll blow your mind.</blockquote>
<h3>The Problem</h3>
Frankly, no one likes browsing their computer for images to use in a design.
BORED!
<h3>The Solution</h3>
Here are some fun little techniques you can do with images inside of <a href="https://medium.com/u/d39f69b23aa2">Sketch</a> to save you time, headache, and [probably] swearing.
Three…two…one…GO!
<h3>The Solution(s)</h3>
<ul>
<li>Drag and Drop Image Fill: Quickly replace an image fill by dragging an image into the image fill box. This works from just about anywhere…your desktop, the web, Slack, etc…</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Drag and Drop Image Override: Quickly override an image nested inside of a symbol by dragging a photo into the image override box.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Copy and Paste Image Override: Override an image by pasting an image from your desktop. Simply copy an image from the web (or take a screenshot with Command+Shift+4 and hold Control to copy to your clipboard), then paste it onto the image override block.</li>
</ul>

<ul>
<li>Repeating Pattern: Create one block of a pattern, then create a shape with a pattern fill. Use the drag-and-drop trick to add a repeating pattern fill by dragging the layer onto the image fill block.</li>
</ul>
