Can I have different background images for each question?
### Appearance & Theming

A background image cannot be set for individual questions.

Here are some alternatives you can try:

 - [Insert an image](https://paperform.co/help/articles/insert-images/) above or below a question.
 - [Add a background image](https://paperform.co/help/articles/how-to-add-background-images-to-forms/) to your *entire* form, and [make the white question background transparent](https://paperform.co/help/articles/can-i-set-the-question-background-to-transparent/).
