    Adrian, Welcome to the FF Nation. I am glad you dropped in to join the group. Dont be shy. There is lots to do, read and be involved with. Your participation and involvement is important to us all. Takes a bit to kinda figure it all out but you will be glad you did. Have fun and look around.

    I just took a quick glance at your presentation, you asked for some constructive criticism. I like the content. Here are a few tips to consider.

    1. The spiral transition gets old real fast, change up the transistions, you don't need to use any between slides.
    2. Your text needs to be big enough that you can read it in the back of the room easily. Smaller than 24pt text is normally too small.
    3. Great clean background.
    4. Try to get clearer pictures.

    Great start. Powerpoint can be a great help or the death of an instructor. Play with it and show your presentations to others for feedback. Most of the time, less is better when it comes to the extras.

    Thanks for sharing.

    Hey flounder, That was her. She said that was some class. If you are up by Wytheville sometime stop by the firehouse.
