Hi Mylene

Hope you enjoyed your course on Monday

You can create your company theme firstly you will need to do this on a PP slide first (preferably in slide master)

when you have done this and all your styles have been applied with all the logo's in place

Then save the file as a design template and name the template

To use it as a design you will need to close PPT and re-open it again for it to appear in the apply design area of PPT

Powerpoint tip:

Display pictures inside shapes

Here is a suggestion for adding a professional touch to your presentations: displaying pictures within shapes. This can look particularly good if you use pictures within circles or stars.

To create this effect, draw a shape on your slide from the Drawing toolbar.

Click on the Fill Color button found on the Draw Toolbar usually found at the bottom of the screen; or alternatively right-click on the shape and select 'Format Autoshape'.

Select the Fill Effects option then the Picture tab. Use the 'Select picture' button to find the picture on your computer, then click Insert. Selecting the 'Lock picture aspect ratio' helps to keep the picture in proportion.
