User guide for putting images in Powerpoint that appear automatically in a slideshow and with a one second delay

1.       Open up Microsoft PowerPoint.

2.       To place an image into Powerpoint you can either insert it from Clip Art (go to number 3), insert it from your files (go to number 4) or from the internet (go to number 5).

3.       To insert an image from Clip Art click on the insert tab in PowerPoint and select the Clip Art button to open up the menu on the right of the screenshot below. You can then search for any image you want, just click it to put it onto your slideshow.

4.       To insert a picture which is a file on your computer click the insert tab and select the picture button. You can then select the image(s) you need to use by clicking on them.

5.       To insert an image from the internet find the image you want; right click on it and select copy from the menu. You then can go into Powerpoint, right click again and press paste on the menu to insert your picture. 

6.     To animate each picture click on the animation tab and then click on the image you want to animate. On the left of the menu you can see lots of different animations that you can use to add different entrance effects for your images (just the green ones for entrances). Click on the one you want to add that animation to the picture.

7.      On the right of the menu you can edit when the entrance animation will take place for the picture. To make the image appear automatically select the ‘after previous’ option next to the word ‘start’ (in the timing section).

8.      To make an image appear exactly one second after a previous image then you go down to the delay part in the timing section. You can set the amount of delay to by clicking it and typing in the time you want for example 1 second is ‘1:00’.
