I had to guess you are using XT113, which is a xaratemplates.com template:
https://xaratemplates.com/shop/xara-...t113-template/.
This is not a Xara design; these are usually better.
The image is 1920x1301px so you need to ensure a similar width.
A drag and drop should work. I tried with free XTF01; the original needs to be selected first-off.
Try Right-click > Replace photo > from file instead.
All the Web effects should be retained.
