If You’ve Ever Sat Through a Typical PowerPoint
Presentation: by John Medina
"As you no doubt have noticed if you’ve ever sat through a typical PowerPoint presentation, people don’t pay attention to boring things. You’ve got seconds to grab someone’s attention and only 10 minutes to keep it. At 9 minutes and 59 seconds, something must be done to regain attention and restart the clock–something emotional and relevant. Also, the brain needs a break. That’s why I use stories in this book to make many of my
points." |

| Searching Flickr for Creative Commons Pictures |
| |
|
| |
| There are a number of sites that provide royalty-free pictures that can be used in your PowerPoint presentations. One such site used to be Microsoft's Office.com site. There are several other sites that provide free pictures. However, none of these resources can match the amazing breadth and variety of
picture content you can find at Flickr, a photo-sharing site. Additionally, Flickr makes it easy for you to find pictures that you can legally use in your presentations since it lets you search for pictures within the Creative Common license. |

| Attributing Creative Commons Pictures in PowerPoint Slides |
| |
|
| |
| Millions of pictures are available online within the Creative Commons license. Many of these pictures can be found on Flickr. Typically, most Creative Commons licensed content on Flickr can be searched within three useable categories. You can decide which of these license options work for you, which
pictures are available within any of these license options, and then download the picture. That's when you need to think about another important aspect of the Creative Commons license: and that is attribution. |

|
| |
| The more pictures you find online, the more difficult it gets to decide whether this picture can be legally used or not. And yes, it's not too difficult if you are ready to pay for high-quality images, because there are some awesome stock photo sites that have you covered. But in case your pockets are
not too deep, or even if you are doing something on a shoestring budget for a pro bono cause, then you will want a source of pictures that's high quality, and also not expensive at all. And Pixabay, the site we are reviewing today actually exceeds those requirements because not only are the pictures high quality, but they are free as well! |
