You can see a diamond symbol on the top right part of the image- Which means that they are premium images. If we upgrade to starter we will get 20 premium images per month. For finding the images fast we can also use the search bar on top also there is an option to filter the image too. 

Let’s say if you like an image click on the image and it will be added to our design page. Here we can use this image to set as background/remove background.

Flip the image and if you want another image you have the option to replace the image. In the arrangement option, you can align positions where you want to place the image, and also you can duplicate, lock or delete the image here. On the top panel, there are some more tools:
