How to Chop-off the Logo without Hurting the Teddy

Crop Unwanted Part of an Image without Harming the Main Element

Well, I think both of these titles can together explain the gist of this post. Sometimes when dealing with PowerPoint, we may find ourselves stuck at some images, which have certain queer edges, making it almost impossible to crop without mutilating the main object. The image of the teddy given in the beginning of the post explains this problem well.

If we try to simply crop this image to avoid the logo (Howtodo.com is what it reads), we will find that we can do it only either incompletely or cutting away one of the legs of the teddy.

So, how can we chop off the logo without hurting the teddy?

In such cases, we can do it more effectively with some small tricks.

Just click on the image, and rotate the image by clicking and turning on the rotating handle in such a way that the logo is placed at the bottom of the image.

Now, copy the image, and using the paste special option, paste it as a PNG.

Now, try to chop off the logo using the crop tool. You will find that now it is possible to remove the logo without harming any part of the teddy bear.

Hope you like the trick.

Write on Chalkboard Using MS Paint

Let me share you a small tip which I learned during my first months of e-learning job. This one is regarding the fonts which we use to make our e-learning courses appealing. I know there are a lot of professional as well as artistic fonts available online to be used while designing your e-learning course. Of course, some fonts look exactly like the hand written letters or the chalk-drawn ones. Here, I want to share a simple method to create chalk-written letters (or images). Apart from PowerPoint, what I use additionally to create the letters is the MS Paint version available with Windows 7. You can use the image of a chalk board in PowerPoint seen as below. You can browse the image of a chalkboard from net or you can find one in the PowerPoint's clip arts section itself. If you don’t have the chalk-written fonts installed on your computer, try doing the steps which are described below. Open your MS Paint (Windows 7) and manage some blank white space. Select the Brushes from t...

Remove Image Backgrounds Using Paint in PowerPoint – An Outdated Update

The traditional methods of removing backgrounds of images in PowerPoint 2007 version have become obsolete now with the advent of the innovative background removal tool in the 2010 version. But since what the proverb reminds us is being late is better than being never’, I decided to post a small tip, using which we can make the background removal in 2007 version a little bit finer with the application of MS Paint. We know two methods of background removing in PowerPoint 2007. In the first method , we draw an outline of the main object in our image using freeform shape and fill the shape using the picture or texture fill option. In the second method , we draw outlines of the background areas of the image using free form tool, give same colour to all shapes, and after making the entire group into a PNG image remove the background portions using set transparaent colour option. But while using this second method, many of you might have found the light outline of the shapes as a disturbnace...

Loading Effect in PowerPoint

In this short article, I am going to show you how I did the ‘Loading Effect’ animation in PowerPoint. You can check the ‘ AuthorStream ’ video given with this article to see what is the Loading Effect here I mention. Loading Effect More PowerPoint presentations from Tom We have seen this option in many places, when an online flash game is getting loaded, when a new software is being installed, or something like that. I tried to create the same effect in PowerPoint, and succeeded to a certain extend, but here is a disclaimer: this effect won’t work properly in Articulate, unless you are modifying the animations with more patience and efforts. I will try to explain the Loading Effect in the following steps using some screenshots. Step 1: First you want a rectangular frame like this: Animation: No Animation required Step 2: Draw another rectangular box within the first frame, and give a different colour to it. Animation: Give...
