Most of my graphics are done in PPT. Primarily because if I need to make edits, I can do those directly in PPT without swapping back and forth to another graphics editing program. Sometimes I'll jump over to Illustrator or Fireworks to get an effect that PPT can't do. I use Photoshop often for cropping and fiddling with photos, too. I know PPT has a neat cropping tool, but the original photo is still there and contributes to the overall project size.  The images in this post were all created in PPT and my goal in the short 75 minute sessions at TK12 is to demonstrate some neat tips & tricks.
