Are There Any Powerpoint Experts Out There?

[piggynose]

I am going around in circles here, all i want to do is put together a 10-15 mins powerpoint presentation about Birmingham, with say about 12 slides
any advice would be appreciated

[Tilly2]

Whats the problem, Piggy?

[Tilly2]

I would like to help, if I can. I used to use Powerpoint a lot, in my line of work Just off to eat though. Maybe someone else can help you. Good luck.

I think you need to start be answering Tilly's question - what problem are you having? You open powerpoint, select new presentation, start your first slide and then pick new slide and build it up from there.

sorry for appearing ambigious, i basically want to find some content to fill the pp with. i've googled several things in recent past without any problems, but after about an hour of searching the net for a ready made to measure pp of birmingham, i cant find one.

Is there anything in particular you want to say about Birmingham?
Its history? Shops?Football teams? Politics? Entertainment/culture? Good points? Bad points?

[Buenchico]

What, exactly, do you want to include in your PP presentation about Birmingham? Is it, for example, about its history or perhaps (again, for example) about its current nightlife? There's no much point in us directing you to materials about the history of the Jewellery Quarter if you're actually seeking images of people dancing the night away at the Tunnel Club!

Further, it's still not clear as to whether:
(a) you've actually got PowerPoint on your computer ; and
(b) you know the basics about how to use it.

We need lots more information, Piggynose!

sorry chris and other abers, i just want to say why brum is a good place to visit, include some history inc black country, canals, some music eg b.sabbath, new library, the ammount of green spaces there are. plus one or two other bits of trivia which you possibly find on tripadvisor. i found several videos about brum, but theyre over long, theres 42 things to do, this would be need to curtailed.

If you must use video which I don't suggest you do then make 10-12 slides using headings like those you have listed "green space", "music", etc then put a few bullet points on each slide about the subject in the slide title. Google Image search some free photos that illustrate one or sometimes two of the bullet points.
