Image Picker Wheel - Pick a Random Image by Spinning

1. What Is the Image Picker Wheel?

Image Picker Wheel is a random image generator that will decide a random image from a list of pictures you provide. It is a specialized Picker Wheel focusing on selecting a random picture.

It is created because we know a picture is worth a thousand words. It will make the wheel more interactive with the audiences. For example, a teacher can use this Image Picker Wheel to teach students about animals by inserting all the animal photos in the wheel.

2. How to Use This as a Random Image Generator?

This image wheel will decide a random image from a list of photos you inserted.

This wheel does not function as a typical random photo generator, as it does not has all the predefined photos. It is a general type of random image generator where it supports all image formats and does the image selection from the images you provide.

1. Click the "upload image(s)" button.

2. Select a single image or multiple images. It accepts all the images format. e.g. png, jpg, gif, and others.

3. The images are inserted and displayed in inputs section. You can hide or remove an image by toggling the tick and also the close button.

4. Click the "SPIN" button to start spinning the Image Picker Wheel.

5. The result will be announced.

6. Choose one of the actions for the result selected. Understand the type of action modes at section 3.

7. The spin behavior, sound, confetti, and color settings can be changed at the Tool Settings section.

Other features: You may sign up for an account to save/open your list into file. The data can be saved for future use and shared across multiple devices.

3. Type of Action Modes

Same as the Picker Wheel, there are 3 actions you can do when the image result is announced.

3.1. Normal Mode

The image selected will still be available next round and all the available image options remain the same as the previous spin.

3.2. Elimination Mode

The image selected will be temporarily eliminated. You can enable it back by toggling the image in the inputs section.

3.3. Accumulation Mode

The count of the image selected will be added +1. By default, all the newly inserted image's count is zero.

4. Use Cases

These are the several scenarios that we think the Image Picker Wheel will help.

1. A kindergarten teacher can do a more interesting lecturing in the classroom with all the kids.
2. We can use it in an ice-breaking game. The loser must do the posture the same as the image selected.
3. We can use it to decide what food to cook. The food among the top 3 counts will be cooked.

5. Wheel Customization

Customization is always great to fit your mood. Let’s customize your image picker wheel and insert your favorite images before spin.

How to customize?

1. Go to the “Tool Settings” section below the wheel.

2. Several things you can do with customization:

   • Adjust the spin behavior which is the spinning speed (slower or faster) and spinning duration (shorter or longer).
   • Manually stop which you can control when to stop the spinning.
   • Random initial angle for the first spin.
   • Mystery spin will hide your inputs on the wheel to make the spinning process interesting and mystery.
   • Turn on/off the confetti setting, and also select the sounds of start, spinning and ending.
   • Change the wheel colors as it catches 99% of your visual.
   • Background color which change your whole background theme of your webpage, you can match the background color with your wheel colors.
   • Customize wheel colors and background color with your own colors. (Premium Users)
   • Adding your own logo or banner. (Premium Users)

6. Open/Close Title Section

Do you know that you can set a title for your wheel spinning?

Why do we need to add a title for a spin? Because:

• It can help you to specify the aim of spinning.
• Other people know your purpose of spinning when you shared a link with them.
• It provides a clear guideline when you are preparing the inputs.
• It gives you a title when the result is announced.

You can open or close the title section when you need as long as before each spinning.

The open/close title button is located within the inputs section.

And you can insert the title.
