[@kristinapehur2671]

This is amazing!!!! Thank you SO much for explaining all the steps in such an easy to follow steps! I'll play around with PPT for my own banners and I'll be sure to share this video with other instructors.

Amazing!! PowerPoint is so underrated and so underused, if only people knew how versatile this program is... Great tutorial and thanks a lot!

[@HowToCanvas]

Couldn't agree more! PowerPoint is often used wrong and people think it’s a bad platform. It has so much potential to do great things! I use it to create my KZbin thumbnails, despite paying for Visme, Canva, and Photoshop.

Another solid video 👍

Wasn't that fun! I have so many more that I'd like to make but life has been smacking me around lately.

Great video! Is there a way to setup links on each of the dashes or shapes? For example, could each one be linked to a module?

How can we make a page the landing page since we can't add it to the sidebar navigation as the home page?

Another great video, thank you! I have a query relating to the image you add to the text box in the first part. When I go to add an image to the text box, it only adds the very top part of the image and I can't figure out a way to reposition it so the image fits the wave like in your video. I've tried with several images too. Any ideas?

If you go to the shape ribbon, click the drop down on the crop button and select fill. You’ll be able to adjust how the picture fills the shape.

​@@SeanNufer thanks for the prompt reply! I don't seem to have a crop option available. If I select the dashes in the text box, I get a 'Shape Format' ribbon that I can select, but there isn't a crop option to select like there is if you select an actual image and select the Picture Format ribbon. It's at point 3m 35s in this video where an image is added to dashes in the text box, if that helps?

​@@SeanNuferjust to add to the above, occasionally a picture does drop in more centrally, but unsure how as I can't find that crop menu you mention. However, when it does drop in centrally it looks stretched. But in the video here, the image doesn't look stretched. Any idea how you stop the stretching, or limit it?
