- Now that we know how to create new presentations…and add content to our slides,…in this chapter, I want to go over a few important things…to know about how to change the look of your presentation,…and how to do some other things…that affect your presentation as a whole.…Let's start by looking at how to change the theme.…I've opened the presentation called…Landon Hotel Directors Guide from the exercise files folder.…And this is just three slides with some text…and the hotel logo, and I have the second slide selected.…The nice thing about working with themes…in PowerPoint is that you can change them at any time.…You're never really locked into a theme…once you've selected it.…Although you may find that some themes…shift some of your content around,…and may require you to move text boxes…or graphics on certain slides,…so while you can change your theme at any time,…it's still important to go through…and make sure each slide still looks OK after you do so.…
To change them, go to your Design tab,…and here you can browse the themes horizontally.…
