I have many JPGs and GIFs that can be imported. However the origin (or insertion point) is different than the MB included items. How can the origin be changed?

You can use your Program Settings to specify the folder you import from. Program settings is in the File menu. You can also specify the folder you save your Model Builder files to and specify the folder for line drawings.

Imported images may sometimes come into the design screen smaller/larger than you expected. You can re-size imported images using the material dimension boxes or drag with your mouse to re-size.

Already use resize and file locations. Need to change so that imports come in at the cursor location.
