Scaling a TIFF image in a family

You can grab any template you want, but in my case it's a door, so I'm going to go with door. Click open. Perfect. I'm going to delete this jam here, this mulligan. I'm going to delete this one. And notice my exterior is above my wall. In my project browser under elevations, I'm going to go to exterior. Perfect. Now I'm going to bring in that image. Go insert, go to image. The imported image will not be visible in projects. That's kind of cool. Click close. What they're trying to tell you is get rid of it before you actually add it to a model.
