Saving a Slide as a Template. Okay, you spent a lot of time working on a slide and you have your exact background the way you want, you worked on all of your text, and you think "you know what? I am going to use this over and over time again, I want to make sure that it is always available to me." Well, one thing you can do, of course, is open your existing presentation, and simply resave it as something else and then overtype, or you can also more easily just save it as a design template. You can also create a presentation from an existing presentation, but if you want your particular creation to appear as a design template in the window you see here, all you have to do save your option as a design template, then it will always be available to you in just a click. It is easy to do, click file and save as, and now let's give it a name, I am going to call this one tulips, and then I am going to look under presentation type and I will see an option called design template, I am going to click that and what it is going to do is change the save location to the templates folder and you want to leave that alone, because if you don't, it wont show up in PowerPoint. It will still be available as a template but you will have to go looking for it each time, and that is not something you want to do. So I have given it a name, call it design template, and I am just going to click save and now it is saved. Now if I go back to my slide design page and begin clicking through the template options, it should appear in the actual slide design template. Now sometimes what you may have to do is click out of this and then go back. So I am coming back to the design template, I am looking again scrolling through the list and guess what, I don't see it again. Sometimes this happens and you may have to take a few little steps here to make it actually appear in this design template list that you see. If you look at the bottom, you will see an option called browse and if you go there, you will see any template you've created. There is a beach one I have made and here is the tulips one that I have created and I can simply click apply at this point, it will apply to the slide. However, that doesn't really help me because I want it to be in my template list. So what I am going to have to do is actually go to this folder and make some changes. The problem is I will just bet you that if we open that presentation templates, we are going to see all those templates that we are used to taking a look at. What I want is my template in this presentation designs folder and right now it is not located there. So what I want to do then is go and take a look at wherever that is, and I am going to go to Microsoft Office and look for that templates folder. So I am going to cancel out of this and I am going to click start all programs; if you are on Windows XP, if you look in accessories, there is windows explorer. So I am going to open that and now I am going to take a look at my C drive because that is where that Microsoft folder is going to be stored. By default my documents, desktop, everything you see here is available. Let's go to my computer, expand the C drive, and I am going to look for program files, as we see here, and expand that option, move this over a bit so you can see and if I look down, what I am going to find is Microsoft Office, and that is what I want. So I am going to click to expand Microsoft Office and there is the templates folder hiding way down in here; if I click it, then everything in it is going to appear over on this side. What I am going to want to do at this point is then look at themes from presentation designs. Here are all the presentations designs that I want, and then at this point all I really have to do is drag any presentation designs that I have to this actual folder itself, and that is what I want to do. Now once I have made that change, then anything that I put in this presentations designs folder should appear in PowerPoint that I can easily select it, and that is how you save a slide that you have created as a template.
