A new plugin that AUTOMATICALLY DESIGNS your presentation for you!
Now you can have gorgeous PowerPoint presentations even if you don't have a knack for design! Visual Bee is pretty unique among all the PPT programs I come across daily. This program actually takes your black and white slides with your text and creates STUNNING presentations with professional graphics and background designs.
VisualBee Free has no strings attached – for everyone to use and enjoy. Take your mundane presentation and get your audience roaring, just by clicking on the VisualBee icon on the PowerPoint ribbon.
VisualBee provides automated redesign of your PowerPoint presentations with:
- Original attractive designs
- Exciting backgrounds
- Wide range of flexible layouts
- Automatic insertion of images carefully coordinated with the subject of each slide.
More advanced features are available to VisualBee’s Premium users as well. You can check out the differences between the Free and Premium versions here.
Make sure and watch the demo here to get a better idea of the capabilities. It's also listed as a favorite on the Brainy Betty You Tube Channel.
Enjoy, folks!
