PowerPoint Examples
Here are some PowerPoint examples. The images below are real examples of how to use text on patterned boxes to increase readability.
These are just some of the cool things you can do.
Not only do the slides look attractive but also, they're easy to read.
Working with Patterned Boxes & Text
Look at this first example. Notice how the blue patterned box not only adds color but also helps the text stand out more.
You can make the patterned box any color. But without it, the text gets lost in the background picture and is difficult to read.
Look closely at the Welcome text. You're actually looking at two text boxes. Both say "welcome". But one is larger and a different color. This looks great projected on the screen.
Look at example 2. This patterned box is white. In this example, the text is expanded over the image.
Without the box, text would be constrained to the white portion of the slide - making it difficult to read.
In both examples, you can see the background image though the patterned box. But the boxes serve to enhance text.
Here's one more example. This time, the patterned box is used as part of the header.
The box is a complimentary color of the slide's image. Once again, you can see the image behind the patterned box.
The text didn't need any help in this example. It would have been easily readable without the additional box. So why add it?
Without it, the slide would have looked plainer.
With it, the slide is more attractive. And the header stands out a bit more.
We all have different levels of creativity. I never would have thought to use some of these tricks on my own. But looking at these examples has sparked my own creative ideas.We hope these examples do the same for you.
