I don't have PowerPoint. Is there a free reader availible? Alternately, would it be possible to rewrite this document as a PDF or something?
I tried, but it doesn't render quite the same (the vapor trails in slides 2,3,4 and 6 are off). Anyway, here's what you get:
FWIW, a wonderful free tool to draw vector graphics is inkscape (http://inkscape.org/). It can save as (scalable) vector graphic or export to raster formats. You may give it a try. Regards, Stefan

Strangely, I saw that site a while ago, and have wanted us to copy its design for our web page. I like that its left-sidebar of contents has bigger type and looks simpler. I also like that its search section is within that sidebar, which looks better than the other proposed designs. I would move the search section to the top of the sidebar, instead of Inkscape's bottom placement. (Worse, the top Google bar on the proposed designs at <http://uk.geocities.com/msclrhd/boost...> looks broken on my browsers. I've used Safari and Firefox on Mac OS X 10.3.6. It's too crowded on the top of the pane in Firefox. The same problem exists on Safari, except that the search text is broken. The graphics and controls are in the same positions, but the "Find" and "in" are 40 page-downs from the top. And the whole page, not counting the broken "Find"/"in", is only 7 page-downs tall! A lot of blank space there.) -- Daryle Walker Mac, Internet, and Video Game Junkie darylew AT hotmail DOT com
