QUESTION/DISCUSSION
1. How to use Graphics and Charts.
How to Use Graphics There are multiple ways to incorporate graphics onto your site. Lets take a look at a few different places where you can use images throughout your website: 1. Header Your website will look more professional if you have a customized graphic as your header. Make sure it includes your company name, logo, and/or motto. Also make sure its not too busy and complements your sites color scheme as well. This will also allow you to use your site for branding purposes. 2. Enhance Data If you are presenting data, using charts and graphs will help get your point across better. Humans are naturally drawn to visuals that aid them in understanding overarching messages. 3. Break Up Text Theres nothing worse than going to a site which has paragraphs and paragraphs of information, with no images to break up the text. While generic graphics are better than none at all, make sure to use graphics that complement and support your content.

2. How to Running Presentation
Self-running presentations are a great way to communicate information without having to have someone available to run a slide show presentation. For example, you might want to set up a presentation to run unattended in a booth or kiosk at a trade show or convention, or send a CD with a self-running slide show to a client. You can make most controls unavailable so that users can't make changes to the presentation. A self-running presentation restarts when it has finished and also when it has been idle on a manually advanced slide for longer than five minutes.
