I had to do a visual inventory of every item of furniture and electrical goods in our 4 storey office in London, in PowerPoint.
I didn't enjoy the experience, I must admit.
And don't forget, all designers love receiving their brief from the client in a PowerPoint slideshow.

Actually, who here receives those 'amusing' PowerPoint slideshows from friends?
Have any of them made you laugh?

You clearly need a better (lower) class of friends ;)

The worst ones at my work are usually via Webex at work with someone with poor English making very little sense.

I was taught, several years ago now (!) to just use a picture or two in each slide, keep it short and use no words unless absolutely necessary (except titles).

Still doesn't improve on my nervous presentation style though :oops:
