Very nice! There's another way to do this and it might be easier. Put the image on the background (Format Background). Add a rectangle for the background --you used grays and beiges. Insert the parallelograms. Select them all, right-click and choose Format Shape or Object. In the Format Shape pane under Fill, choose Slide Background Fill. Do you think that gives the same result?↓

Hey Ellen, that's a great hack you shared with us. In fact, that took lesser time (No surprise, you are PowerPoint MVP after all :) We'll definitely share this hack with our readers too in another post.↓
-
Hi Ellen, great hack you've shared! Would love to learn more if you have other tricks.↓
-
Hi Ellen, in fact, using background fill gives a better result, since you can group the objects, reshape and reuse them at will, over and over again!↓
-
Great idea Ellen! Slide background fill is a neat way to create some amazing effects. You can even combine it with animation to make it look like you made your slides in Adobe Flash!
Here's a 4-minute video that shows some examples and how to make them. You won't believe they were made in PowerPoint!↓ -
ellen you are a proffessional↓

You can do the exact same thing with version 2010, but instead of using the Intersect function, you do it with the crop-to-shape function, and crop using the shape (rectangle, circle, etc) as a guide. At the end, after you finish cropping per all the shapes displayed, you delete all the shapes, and you have the exact same thing in the page.
BTW, regardless of the method is important that the image copy for shape 2, 3 and so on is in the exact same place as the original image. I found it easier to copy and paste as many images as there are shapes at the beginning of the process and send them all to back. Then I selected the image that is showing and follow the process outlined. It works!↓-
Hey Virgina, thanks for sharing that workaround with us. We'll try that out in PowerPoint 2010. If it works, it will benefit a lot of PowerPoint 2010 users. :)↓

I cannot get this to work. I have 2013 and got all of it until the intersect. When I click that it takes the 2 merged cells and they are gone. Must be doing something wrong. Anyone help me? I love this look↓
-
Hi Jenna, when you select the image, press Ctrl and then select the shape and click on Intersect, the first split is performed. Now, you have to insert the original image again (the complete image), right click on the image and send it backwards so that the shapes come in front. Now, perform the second split using the same method. So, you have to keep inserting the original image and perform split one by one. So, always copy the original image before performing splits so that you simply have to paste it and not insert it again and again. Hope this helps.↓

Hello, I have a curved image that I want to show it part by part like a LEGO game could you please help me. Thank you.↓
-
Hey, it's difficult to tell without having a look at the image. Please share it at [email protected] so that we can have a look and then guide you regarding the same. Thanks.↓

This is a nice effect - how can you create something similar with triangles that would include three different picture 'frames' in one image? Can anyone recommend a tutorial or advice on how?↓
-
Hi. Do you mean having three different pictures in one triangle? That is possible. Place three images next to each other and put a triangle over them. Now, select the first picture, press Ctrl and select the triangle as well. Go to Merge Shapes > Intersect. Now, try the same with the second image and the triangle. And do with the last image. You just have to take care that you place three images and triangle over them in such a way that the main portion of the image falls within the triangle and superfluous area is cut out.↓
-
Hi sorry I wasn't clear - I meant having three pictures span across ONE slide i.e.
1ST ROW (e.g. one picture split across 3 triangles)
2ND ROW (e.g. different picture split across 3 triangles)
3RD ROW (e.g. as above)
Is this possible?↓-
Yes, that is possible too. Add a rectangle (first row) and fill it with an image (Picture Fill). Add another rectangle (second row) and fill it with a different image. Do the same for the third row. Now, put three triangles in the first row and start splitting it one by one. Do the same procedure for each row. You will have exactly what you wanted!↓
-
You won't believe how long I've been trying to get an effect like this! I might have more questions about the triangles, but I think this should be exactly what I need! Thank you :)↓
-
Feel free to ask as many questions as you want. :)↓
