How are the designs delivered? How do I open ZIP files?

You'll need to unzip the file(s) you download. All designs are delivered in compressed ZIP format. You'll need to use an unzipping program to 'unzip' all the designs, PowerPoint templates and presentations contained within the zip archive.

7-Zip is an excellent freeware zip/unzip program for Microsoft Windows. WinZip is a shareware alternative.

Mac users can get StuffIt Expander.

How do I create a PowerPoint template?

All designs sold here are actually readymade templates!

PowerPoint is available in various versions: 97, 2000, 2002, 2003, 2007, 2010, 2013, 2016, 2019, 2021, 365 for Windows and 98, 2001, 'X', 2004, 2008, 2011, 2016, 2019, 2021, and 365 for the Mac. Only versions 2002 upwards on Windows and versions 'X' upwards on Mac support multiple masters in templates.

Is a custom PowerPoint template service available?

Yes indeed. We'll be happy to quote you for a custom design. Almost all designs can be delivered within 2-4 working days or even sooner.

What type of uses are suggested for these designs?

Beyond the obvious presentation, you can use these designs in many other applications. Take a look at our Ideas section for more info.

What are the copyright implications?

You can use the PowerPoint templates and backgrounds as you please - for purposes as diverse as fashion, styling, television, multimedia, patterning, etc. as long as you don't distribute the designs as they are - in no event shall these designs form the sole basis of any distribution strategy.

You can most certainly use the templates and backgrounds in any lectures, talks, productions, or presentations as long as you don't sell or mass-distribute the content that includes the templates and backgrounds.
