Whatever you do, don't overdo it on the sound effects. Many a time I've sat looking like this eek while discussion points fly in from different angles accompanied by either applause, gun shots or, "d-doing," noises.

Hideous!

lol


I don't use any of that bullshit.

Clear headings, bullet points, the rule of 6 and the odd figure or video for illustrative purposes.


nod yeah, that's the way it should be!

I bet I wouldn't have to edit if I was using Powerpoint

Look on the bright side - it would be comedic at least.

Maybe on Monday.

And I have a few questions for those of you in "the know."

1) wtf is Powerpoint?


More questions will follow depending on the response to this one.


lol

The kids/schools in this area start students on powerpoint presentation giving in the 7-8th grades

giggle catch up man


I used to make the driest, navy blue & white & black Power Point presentations...until I did a coop with 4th & 5th graders and saw all the bells & whistles they fit into 7 slides.

I hate giving presentations, but I think Powerpoint is the best way to present. It takes the focus off of you and on to the screen. Plus I like making my pages really fancy. Having good layouts and easy to follow messages give you bonus points even if you do seem a little nervous. I'm still nervous while giving them, but a lot more at ease than standing at some podium with all eyes on me. Good Luck. smile

They have a tutorial in MS Powerpoint help section. They even give you templates for page layouts. You can't mess it up. I'm sure.

Yeah, the older you get, but in high school I went crazy with all of that. lol I guess it depends on what type of presentation. I wouldn't use it now, but it was fun considering my topic at the time.

Powerpoint is alot easier than it seems plus it has pretty backgrounds.

nod

You'll end up falling in love with Powerpoint and start Powerpoint appreciation threads every other day.

nod

Good luck on your presentation.

Good idea...

but...

no one will post on those appreciation threads and they'll just pile up at the bottom of the GD forum and then the moderators will ban you (again) and that's just no good.


So you should do it yourself...you know, to avoid getting banned and stuff.

My kids say:


They recieved a B and detention when Imago did it for lude conduct!
They recieved an A when Herman did it for a great show with a little concern for such strong opinions.
They recieved an A with honors when Carrie did it for them!

Hope this helps! hug

My advice is select your programer wisely! wink



I'd avoid Erin she eats at McDonalds and then wonders why she is sick! shrug
