We just had a nice lady from the UK ask about changing the color of an image. For example, she wanted to change to color of this superhero’s cape to match different departments for her presentation.

If you are using PowerPoint 2007 or newer, you can easily recolor the image to any of your theme’s colors. This is a great way to make the graphics in your Presentation look custom made and professional.
1. Open up PowerPoint and insert an image into your presentation.
2. Click on top of the image and select “Format Picture”

Step 2: Choose Format Picture
3. Choose the Pictue Color Option and then choose Recolor.

Step 3: Choose Picture Color Options
In PowerPoint 2010, you will get a nice display of what the image will look like with each option. With PowerPoint 2007, you are given a simple color picker so there is a bit more trial and error involved.
That’s all there is to it. Have fun recoloring images!
Here is a sample of the Superhero in a couple of different colors.

We are continuing to work on our selection of medical images and templates. We recently added new images related to the pharmaceutical industry. If you are in the medical field, please be sure to send in your suggestions we’d be happy to add them to our membership.
Here is a template that Josh Doohen made called Prescription Line. The PowerPoint 2010 template has been animated with a really interesting video background. The other images in the template are .PNG images and can be easily removed, used in another template, or exchanged for any other clipart on our site.

Template: Prescription Line - Pharmaceuticals
Josh and Judd Albrecht have also been making some interesting drug and medical clipart images. Check out these samples below:

I really like the above image as it is great at illustrating the cost of drugs and medicine. Well done Judd!

We keep looking at areas of our service to build out. This week Josh tackled the insurance industry. He created a series of insurance related clipart images. I know it’s a cliche but the graphics include an umbrella. I do have to admit the graphics turned out good. He has made clipart for health insurance, home insurance, and auto and life insurance. Here are some samples of what he has been working on.

I believe that Josh is still planning to make more insurance graphics. If there is an insurance theme that you would like to see added to PresenterMedia, send in your requests now.

I can’t resist, here’s one I did a while back for Home Insurance.

Social Networking is huge. Business are scrambling to get fans on Facebook and followers on Twitter. The rules of business marketing are changing. Here at PresenterMedia we thought we would start to create some templates and animations to help presenters illustrate how social networking works and to provide you some useful graphics to use in your presentations.
We plan on creating more but here are just a few of what we have come up with so far.
I love these colorful discussion characters that Judd created. I’m sure he will be creating more.

What would we ever do if we didn’t have the ability to search for things. Our life would be hopelessly lost into mass of unorganized chaos. I don’t think I’d be able to survive if it wasn’t for the big search engines like Google and Yahoo. Some will say I’m too relient on technology, but aren’t we all? That might have to be a subject of another post.

In celebration of search, we give you a series of icons and clipart that can be used to represent search. It seems like the universal symbol of search is the magnifying glass. I can think of several ideas to use a magnifying glass on, here are a few clipart samples.

As always if you have an idea for a new search graphic or animation, please let us know. We’re happy to make our customers suggestions.
