Themes - what are they? Well, they are preset layouts that you can just pick and choose.
[00:00:08.0]
Click the Themes button, choose a theme that you enjoy, and then choose the theme.
[00:00:14.0]
It now is importing that layout that I would like to reuse over and over again, and that's what a theme is -
[00:00:21.0]
a layout, a template, that you wish to reuse over and over again, and you can change on the fly.
[00:00:28.0]
Let's take a good look at that.
[00:00:30.0]
Here is our template - looks very nice, as you can see. I can select the text of course, and type whatever I like.
[00:00:41.0]
Now, I can add another slide, and the continuity of my theme still exists.
[00:00:47.0]
And I can choose the layout for that slide.
[00:00:51.0]
Place a photo in that rectangular area and type 'above photo'. And if I make a new slide,
[00:01:00.0]
I could change the layout of the new slide - and it still has continuity with the other slides.
[00:01:08.0]
And this is titled 'top text' - title at the top.
[00:01:15.0]
Add another slide and choose a bulleted master slide, and this changes the slide's individuality.
[00:01:25.0]
You can type a little blurb of text.
[00:01:28.0]
And this is for bullets. And this is your second selling point; and you hit enter and type again and the bullets continue on.
[00:01:36.0]
If you don't like this particular layout, change the master slide - change it to a blank if you wish.
[00:01:43.0]
And it blanks out all the content and data, then you can create your own.
[00:01:48.0]
We're still on slide number 4 as you can see,
[00:01:51.0]
I have a rectangle and I can pull this rectangle out, and give it a little bit of design. And this is part of the template -
[00:01:58.0]
it won't always be purple.
[00:01:59.0]
Each template has a different color for different shapes.
[00:02:03.0]
[00:02:05.0]

fferent shapes.
