RE: images and movies

HI Miriam, Thank you for your post, Welcome to the forum, I hope you enjoyed your course. In answer to your post, Inserting Images and Movies into a presentation;
Lets look at Movies first;
On the Insert menu choose Movies and Sounds, click Movie or Sound from file, navigate to the folder which holds the item you want to include, double-click it to insert it into your presentation, you can then use the custom animation options to determine the way you wish it to be played.
Images;
Locate the folder with your image; I tend to use this method when placing an image on my slide;
Open the slide on to which you wish to place your image, using the rectangle tool, or any other drawing shape create a shape (drag to draw) on your slide of the size you wish your image to be, Right click on this shape, then go to the Format AutoShape option and click, Click the dropdown on the Fill Color, and from the options choose Fill Effects, Click the tab for Picture, Click Select Picture and navigate to the folder where you have placed your image, Select the image and click Insert, the image will fill the drawn shape and you can then complete the resize and hide the borders etc etc.
I hope that helped, if so please click the resolved link, best regards Pete

Powerpoint tip:

Controlling alignment and spacing between shapes in PowerPoint

Instead of trying to align shapes exactly or space shapes an even distance apart from each other by dragging them manually on the screen, use features from the Drawing toolbar to align or space shapes perfectly.

Both the Align and the Distribute features can be found by clicking the 'Draw' button on the Drawing toolbar.

The Align feature allows you to align shapes along the top, bottom, left, right or middle edges or positions.

The Distribute feature will automatically adjust the position of shapes to create an even amount of space between them, either vertically or horizontally.

Before using either of these features, you need to select the shapes you wish to align or distribute on your slide. This can be done by clicking on one shape, holding down the Shift key and continuing to hold Shift down while you click the other shapes you want to select.
