Microsoft PowerPoint: Create a Photo Album

Microsoft PowerPoint creates a new presentation when you use the photo album feature. Any presentations you currently have open in PowerPoint will not be affected by this task

  1. From the Insert menu, move to Picture and select New Photo Album.
  2. In the Photo Album dialog box, add the pictures you want to include in your photo album.
  3. Under Album Layout, do any of the following:
    • If you want to select the layout of your pictures and text boxes on the slides in your photo album, select a layout in the Picture layout list. If you select Fit to slide as your picture layout, you are unable to add or change frame shapes and design templates.
    • If you want to select the shape of a frame to use with your pictures, select a shape in the Frame shape list.
    • If you want to select a design template to use for your photo album, click Browse, and then in the Choose Design Template dialog box, locate the design template you want to use, and then click Select.

Always use the Format Photo Album dialog box when making changes or updates to your photo album.
