I really like the way that you have kepped the same backround on all of the slides are there and that you havent missed any of the slides. One of the problems that I have found is that there is some spelling mistakes in the writing. The words in the text is a bit hard to read you could have had changed the backround colour and the colour of the text. A really good job shot korban Sam king :)
