"Hi! I'm Gary for Expert Village. PowerPoint comes with many templates that we can use not only in the layout of text, but also some graphic and images and the graphic layout of each slide. We see here that we have our slide designed pane open. If you don't have this showing, if you enclosed it or it didn't appear by default, you can go to view and you see that we have a task pane. We just turn it on with the arrow and that will make the site and all the task pane to appears. We have different options here to look at right now. I am looking at the slide design and that is going to show me my templates and we see here that we have some different color and text layouts. We have different graphical images in the background, we have different fonts. It is a little bit hard to see but what I am going to do is I am going to change one of them and we will pick something that will be a start contrast to the design that we have now. I will click this blue design and we see that the whole slide changes the whole template. We have this image on the bottom of mountains. The picture, the text and the title stays the same but the font has changed and the background has changed. I can go ahead and do that in any of these templates. We have a gray template. We can go ahead and change that. We see that our template changes. So these are different ways again just like we dealt with before that we had ways of laying out the actual position of text and images inside the slide. This is a way that we can go ahead and change the graphically change the look of our slide by changing the image and the text and the font sizes and font types. "
