Powerpoint Tips

I have only made a few powerpoints in my life, but I have see a lot! My professors and teachers have used them to lecture in the past, and my fellow students have often used them for projects. I know now that there are definately some guidelines when creating a good powerpoint project. Here's a list of five guidelines:
1. Keep it simple! Don't use too many animations
2. Keep the color theme consistant and readable
3. Don't use too many bullet points...your audience will get bored
4. Visual images often work better than text in terms of keeping attention
5. Don't make the presentation too long...you will definately lose the attention of your audience!
I hope these help my classmates!!
