PowerPoint 2013 Interface
Here's a quick walkthrough of the PowerPoint 2013 interface -- the PowerPoint 2013 interface is quite similar,
yet somewhat different than the interface of PowerPoint 2010. The biggest change is that PowerPoint 2013's interface
is primed for use also on tablets, touch-screens, and phones (other than conventional desktops). Thus, you can swipe
and tap your way through a presentation -- and also make several edits without the need of a cursor.
Explore a quick walkthrough of the PowerPoint 2013 interface that reveals some new features.

Concept Slides: Two Segment Circle
This two segmented circle can be used in your slides to explain a concept or an
idea -- you can also find more similar segmented circle slides. You can use this concept circle in your presentation
like a picture container. Most of these conceptual designs have been created with basic PowerPoint shapes. Also,
some of them are imported from other graphic programs and converted to PowerPoint shapes. The sample presentation that
you download comprises two segments within a circle as two separate slides -- one with a picture fill, and the other
with just a solid color fill. Copy these slides to your PowerPoint presentation and change the fills and effects
of individual segments as well as the thin donut shaped circle around the segment, using PowerPoint's fills, lines,
and effects.

People Pyramid silhouette graphic in addition to another variation of a People Chain line -- this line has
alternating persons in larger and smaller sizes. This is perfect to use in scenarios where teams sourced from
different organization levels are involved. You can also use these silhouette graphics in presenting scenarios
where you need to create slides related to the strength of unity and diversity, multi-racial staff,
international groups, etc. Once you have downloaded the sample presentation, all you have to do is copy the
silhouette graphics and paste them in your slides.
