How to Create Image Selection Questions in Zoho Survey | Online Help Guide

Image Selection

The Image Selection question type allows you to upload images as the answer choices to a question; the respondents can select an image from the options. 
For example, assume that you've been running a cafe for the past two years. As part of a rebranding that you're planning, you would want to conduct a survey and understand your customer preferences on various aspects of your cafe. You could use an image selection question to learn their thoughts about a new logo design. You could use the image star rating question to rate the choices with their order of preference as well.
