In other words, can I directly do that in org beamer mode?
You want the #+attr_latex feature to send export options to LaTeX[1]. Here's an example: --------- * Section ** Slide name *** Column 1 :BMCOL:B_ignoreheading: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_col: 0.45 :BEAMER_env: ignoreheading :END: Here's the text for column 1. *** Column 2 :BMCOL:B_ignoreheading: :PROPERTIES: :BEAMER_col: 0.45 :BEAMER_env: ignoreheading :END: #+ATTR_LaTeX: width=0.95\textwidth [[/here/is/the/path/to/your/image.jpg]] ---------- The width= option scales the image. \textwidth when used in the column environment applies to the width of the *column* textwidth, not that of the actual total page size. I've found that using 0.45 for the :BEAMER_col width made things look a little better, but that might have been due to my custom template. Use 0.5 if you want to make it bigger and it works for you.
