How do you put a pic as a background on powerpoint?
343319
Save the picture to your computer, select "Backgrounds" on the  powerpoint, then go all the way to the right where it says "import picture" or something like that. Choose the picture you want, and hit apply or apply to all. Something like that.

To get consistent results you should apply a stroke as follows:\n1. Open the image.\n2. Double click the locked "Background" layer and rename it.  (This unlocks the layer and allows you to edit.)\n3. Click the "Add Layer Style" icon in the Layers Pallet and choose stroke.\n4. Set your stroke to INSIDE.  Then set your color, size and other settings to preference.

Just press PrintScreen/SysRq button on keyboard (for Windows Operating system) and open MS paint, press control+V. You will get  it. Save it as bmp file and import the picture in your power point  presentation.

There isn't a foolproof way to do this, but there are some things you can do to make it a lot more difficult, so hopefully most people will give up.\n\nOne way is to have a transparent overlay as the image (ie, the part where it says <img src="[your overlay here]">). Then you set your actual picture as the background instead, which you do like this:\n\n<style type="text/css">\nbody { background-image: [your picture here] }\n</style>\n\nYou can get around this by selecting Copy Background instead of Save Image on your browser, but most users won't realize that the picture they are seeing is really a background instead of a regular picture.\n\nThe other way to do it is to insert some javascript into the page, like this:\n\n<script type="text/javascript">\nfunction Copyright() {\nalert("This image is copyrighted by [your name]");\n}\n</script>\n\nThen, within each image tag, you include an onMouseDown event controller, like this:\n\n< img src="[your image here]" \nonmousedown="Copyright()" >\n\nThat way, any time the user right-clicks on your image, they get a popup instead of the their context menu.\n\nOf course, if someone just views your page as text, they can see where each image tag's source is. If they type that in directly, they will just get your jpeg file without any html or javascript. The only way to prevent that is to do some complicated application security stuff with server-side scripting. But for the average user who just wants to save a copy of your pretty picture, the two above methods will probably be enough.\n\n[Edit]\nYou can, actually, prevent people from printing but still letting them view an image. You use the Media Types feature in CSS, like this:\n\n<style type="text/css">\n@media print {\nimg { display: none }\n}\n</style>\n\nThis just says not to display images when printing the page.\nMedia Types aren't necessarily supported by all browsers or printers, but that's how you'd do it.

O SNAP SON! thats a perfect question, because im in commerical art class right now dealing with adobe illustration and photoshop so you asked the right question lol. What i would do is use the lasso tool (polygonial in specific) and then trace the image NOT FULLY, because then the only part youll have to edit is the inside, instead of editing inside trace it and then go outside and make a rectangle (or whatever) around the background so that the image is outside traced and the background  section is selected, FIRST make sure the background layer is selected (if you have more then one layer) (layers appear to the right of the screen in the program) (select it by just clicking on the layer tab) and then once you have done that you would want to select what color you want the background to be from the color palette and then use the paintbrush tool  to feel in the background in replace of white. You will have to repeat the lasso maybe a few times because its not like just outlining the object itself your outlining the background, OR you can just make a diffrent color background (have to make a diffrent layer (youll see how to make a diffrent layer at the bottom of the layer box just scroll those icons down there)) and then paint the layer the color you want it to be but MAKE SURE that the layer isnt on the image layer then it will all turn that color becasue a new layer overlaps and old one. If the image comes with the white background you probably just want to go with the lasso direction. Alright..thats it, hope yo find it out, if you dont just click my name on here and find out my contact info. PEACE! O yeah and make sure u drag and drop the clipart into photoshop to use it lol.

Find a pic you like and upload it to a photobucket account, www.photobucket.com , you can then use the tag from photobucket to to make a background at www.layoutpimper.com it is fairly easy and has step by step directions.  Thats how I do all of mine.

Refer the Microsoft Powerpoint help. You can find it there.

Think the previous answer is slightly out... .psp is a PaintShop Pro file.\n\nA .pps file is a PowerPoint Show - equivalent to a .ppt file, but defaulting to showing the presentation rather than editing it when opened.  You'll need either Microsoft Powerpoint, which you'll need to get as part of Office, or the standalone viewer Microsoft offer ( http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?FamilyID=428d5727-43ab-4f24-90b7-a94784af71a4&displaylang=en ), or (perhaps best of all) the free Office equivalent available from http://www.openoffice.org\n\nHope that helps!

You dont need a special wallpaper to put a pic up as your background! Do a search with the images tab in your browser and copy the pic to your PC somewhere. Right click on the pic and set as background!

You can insert images into your presentation by pulling down the "insert" menu to "picture". The software that includes PowerPoint probably also has some clip art that you can put into your presentations. Most of the time, the computer program will try to direct you to that clip art folder.\n\nYou can probably find some clip art from the internet, too. Do a Google image search for "clip art" and you'll find plenty. If you are using Windows, right-click on the images to save the picture to your hard drive. On a Mac, you have to hold down the control key while you click the image to get the same menu. Save it to a place you can find, then insert it into the PowerPoint presentation by pulling the "Insert" menu to "Picture" and "From file".\n\nThere are lots of other images on the web that can be downloaded, but that doesn't mean you have a legal right to use them. I have a lot of photographs on the web that can be downloaded, but are copyrighted to me, and if I find out you used one of them in your presentation, I might sue you!  \n\nJust remember not to overdo it. Many beginners go all out putting pretty graphics into their presentations, playing with the typeface and colors of their text until the point of the presentation is lost. You have some information you want to communicate. The best-used graphics help you communicate that information without distracting from it.\n\nPeople who make informational graphics for a living (like the illustrations you see in magazines, textbooks, or newspapers) follow what they call the hierarchy of information. They ask the question, "What do I want the reader to see first?" When they've answered that question, they make the most important element stand out, through color, line weight, size, etc. Then they ask, "What do I want the reader to notice after that," and they make sure the second most important element has its proper weight. The least important information should be in the background.\n\nAnother thing to remember is the reason you are there giving the presentation. Don't write too much in the presentation, leave something for you to say out loud. Some of the best presentations are a series of graphs, maps, and charts. The presenter introduces the presentation, pauses while the audience looks at each graphic, summarizes what the graphic shows, puts it in context, points out the interesting bits, interprets it, and then moves on to the next slide. A short conclusion should wrap it all up. \n\nAnd yeah. This question is mis-classified.

Just use OpenOffice instead. It's essentially the same as Microsoft Office and includes it's own presentation program which functions just like and is compatible with Microsoft's PowerPoint.\n\nGet it here:\n\nhttp://www.openoffice.org
