Suggestions for good presentation design?

I am currently using the default font size for title and subtext that comes with the dark blue gradient template.
1.) Are there any general guideline for good presentation design with regards to having titles take two lines of text?
2.) Are there any general guidelines for what the title font size should be? I am wondering if I should make the title font size smaller to fit more characters.
Thanks!!!

I have been an prenter/instructor for many years, and +*Presentation Zen*+ by Garr Reynolds is absolutely the best reference on this topic.
Beware of using too much text on your slides. Less is, most certainly, more when it comes to engaging your audience and keeping their attention. Be liberal with the use of large graphics and keep it fun for everyone involved.

  • Need suggestions for good online Adobe classes in photoshop, ill. indesign etc.

    Hi I am a graphic designer and would like some suggestions for good online Adobe classes ... I found
    Adobe Master Series Online Training Library at the Adobe store and was wondering has anyone had good, bad ugly experience with this before I make the purchase. The suite offers training in Photoshop, Illustrator, InDesign, Dreamweaver, Flash, and various Macromedia titles so it covers it all for me in one go.

    A less expensive, non-subscription option would be http://www.vtc.com they offer many video cds for applications that have given many I know a leg up on learning an application.

  • Suggestions for good framework

    Hi all,
    We are looking for framework for a dot com ecoomerce site (using EJBs, JSP,

    Does anybody have any suggestions for good frameworks. Framework should be

    You could look at WebGain tools - http://www.webgain.com. They are the only who
    vendors who currently support development on WLS 6.0.

  • Suggestions for good expression tutorial/guide/reference?

    I just spent 3 hours writing a simple XPath expression (at least I think it's an XPath expression). I kept making simple mistakes due to my lack of understanding of some of the internal workings of expressions in Oracle's BPEL tools. Little things, like the difference between bpws:getVariableData('corePerson','/ns6:Person/ns6:globalId') and $corePerson/ns6:globalId, kept tripping me up. While these are both valid expressions that compile and deploy perfectly fine, they do very different things... and I needed to use one in one place in my BPEL process and the other in another place in the same process.
    Does anyone have any recommendations for good tutorial and reference material for working with XPath expressions? I'd love something that describes, in depth, all of the standard (and Oracle-specific) XPath functions... what they do and when/how to use them. Also, it would be great to get a better understanding of different types of expressions and where I might want to use each one (such as the example given above).
    Thanks!

  • Need Suggestion For Good Case

    I have posted before looking for some good suggestions on a good silicone-type skin and belt clip. Eventually I'm going to buy a JBL On-Stage III so I'l want something that can dock with the skin. I would also like a beltclip or holster but I don't think I'll get both in one. I'm probably going to have to find a good silicone skin and put velcro tape on it and a generic clip. I have had my eye on the iSkin Duo case but I cannot find a retailer in the Kansas City area that has them for the Touch. I hate to order it and not like it or it won"t dock with the JBL OS III. If anyone is familiar with this case or any other that will cover what I'm looking for I'd appreciate it. Thanks.

    The company Power Support makes very good cases for iPods. Their products are durable and nicely designed. The material that they use is top quality because you can tell by comparing some of the cheap ones. One trade off is that its very expensive. Most of those cases are around $30-35. Plus taxes and S&H it will go to about $40-45. Of course you can buy them at a brick-and-mortar store but the online store carries all of the products. Take a look...

  • Suggestions for Good AJAX forum/newsgroup/mailing list?

    I'm in need of a rather specific UI implementation and I've

    that exactly matches. I need to find out which of the

    where to start.
    Can anyone suggest a relatively active AJAX discussion group?

    Good, generic, Ajax forums, are hard to find (I am still
    looking for one
    myself). Library specific forums are usually very good
    instead, I know the
    ones from YUI and jQuery are worth following. Of course, they
    become more useful *after* you pick your library...

  • Need Suggestions For GOOD Free Ringtone App

    Before the software update, I used Mabilo without any problems. Now, it doesn't work. So I'm searching for an app that is just as good, if not better than Mabilo. Any suggestions??

    As previous post mentioned ZEDGE is a good free app for tones in addition to wallpapers. However the best solution might just be to put your own music on the phone through Windows Media Player (or whatever you use) and use RINGDROID to make your own

  • Suggestions for good sketch/illustrator app

    I'm currently looking for a lightweight app (don't mind paying for it) that is good at creating simple illustrations. The illustrations are simple shapes with dimensions, line diagrams, and basic flow charts. Before I switched to my MBP, I used AutoCAD to create these items and export them to a JPG. That's a little overkill for some of the things I want to do at home. I've tried using AutoCAD with Parallels, but the images end up being too faded out due to the size reduction to fit onto a page. Any suggestions or leads will be appreciated. Thanks.

    I would recommend OmniGraffle in the strongest possible terms. Five stars and then some.
    http://www.omnigroup.com/applications/omnigraffle/
    It's utility is limited to exactly the kind of stuff you mentioned in your post, though, so it's by no means a general Adobe Illustrator replacement -- more of a Microsoft Visio replacement. If you instead want fewer diagramming features and more general illustration features (with a much more basic interface), you might try EazyDraw:

  • Suggestion for good book/reference of flex and blazeDS

    hi...been developing the client side with flex for some time and now getting into server side and found some stuff from adobe and other short articles about blaze and servers but really looking for a good book/reference...thought i'd buy a book called enterprise flex with blazeds by brian someone....worst IT book i've ever read...any ideas would be great

    Update:
    Ok...I finally figured out that by replacing the tokens in the services-config.xml file with the physical address of the server everything works.
    Anyway...this means the application needs to be compiled everytime it is moved to a new server or even a different folder on the same server for that matter. Is there any way to pass the {server.name}, {server.port} and {context.root} tokens to the application at runtime for messaging?
    Thanks,

  • Need suggestions for good webcam (not isight) for  OS 10.4.9

    I never would have thought it would be so hard to find a webcam for my powerbook! Simple question, Who makes a good one now that isight isn't made anymore? I want to use it with Skype and iChat. Thanks!!!

    Today I just bought the quickcam fusion which works well... I just plugged it in and it worked - I didn't install any software (windows only software comes with the camera), so I'm not sure if I can take advantage of features such as "rightlight 2", which enhances the video under low light, and I don't think that I can take 4MP images with it - just video conferencing with ichat (which is what I bought it for) (and I just found freakshow - which is like photobooth).
    Make sure you get the UVC version of any webcam...
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=4401596&#4401596
    It's kinda difficult to figure out which cameras are UVC compatible - I just looked at the table in the following link and picked the quickcam fusion with the "rightlight 2". The one with just "rightlight" is not UVC compatible.

  • Need suggestion for the following Design

    Hi All,
    I have the following requirement to be implemented.
    | |
    | < Start Day << Start Week ---- End Week >> End Day > |
    |____________________________________________________________________|
    The above has to be on top of a table.... (i.e a table action region)
    Table action allows us to have either "rowLayout" or "flowLayout" to begin with...
    The "Start Day", "Start Week" and so on are actions...
    Pls suggest me how to align " End Week >> | End Day > " to right (end of the table)....
    PS... I am unable to plot the image properly... the " ---- " in between is just spaces.
    Putting it simple, In a table action I want a button on the left most and right most corner...

  • Any suggestions for good phone?

    Is there a good phone to use without data plan? I do not need internet browser I just call and txt.
    I want it to be a decent looking.
    If not how many phones comes with the 10 dollar data plan? I can't seem to find any.
    Thanks

    Go to verizonwireless.com and browse the feature phones - those do not require a data plan, and only you can decide what "decent looking" means to you.
