Someone: "You know how to edit photo?"
Me: "Yes of course"
Someone: "Nice, are you using Photoshop?"
Me: *opening PowerPoint* "Nope, even better than Photoshop"

I have been using remove background thinking that was my only option. Now, with the help of this video, I can tag the transparent background. Tried in in ppt 2013. It works. I don't get the full features such as Mark Areas, but this is still a great tip for the majority of my embedded images. Thank you.

This is such an entry level tutorial. You know as a microsoft employee that images are way more complex and require more sophisticated editing so the edges aren't edgy.

Brilliantly presented Kevin. Your commentary is easy to understand as well as informative; thank you.

Being an IT twit this is brilliant - thank you

[aranicolle]

I am really a fan of your videos Thank you so much

Wow! I didn't know you could make adjusts like that in PPT. I always thought something like that was only done in an editing software. This is really good to know. I'm an Audio Visual Technician. I could really impress a client when assisting them with their slides before a meeting. Thanks.

I have used "Set Transparent Color" command in Word for a long time but it was limited. I never noticed "Remove Background" before. While watching your video, I paused and checked Word's Picture Format ribbon and "Remove Background" is available in Word also. Your tip is so very useful and I will use it often. Thank you very much.
