Creating custom themes for Google Slides is an excellent way to make your presentations more personalized and engaging. Here’s a step-by-step guide on how you can do this:
- Open Google Slides and start a new presentation. You can either use a blank one or use any of the available templates.
- In the toolbar, click on “Slide” and then select “Edit Master.” This will open a new screen where you can create your custom theme.
- On the left side of the screen, you’ll see a list of slide layouts. Click on the “Master” slide at the top. Changes made here will apply to all slide layouts.
- Now you can start customizing your theme. You can change the background color or add a background image by clicking on “Background…” in the toolbar. You can also change the font, color, and size of the text.
- If you want to add placeholders for text, images, or shapes, simply click on “Insert” in the toolbar and then select what you want to add. You can position and resize these placeholders as you wish.
- Once you’re done customizing the Master slide, you can go ahead and customize the individual slide layouts. This is optional, but it allows you to create more specific designs for different types of slides.
- After you’re done with all the customizations, simply click on “X” in the top-right corner to close the master view. Your custom theme will be applied to your presentation.
Remember to save your custom theme so you can use it again in the future. To do this, click on “Theme” in the toolbar, then “Save current theme.” Give your theme a name and click “Save.”
Creating custom themes for Google Slides allows you to create more effective and visually appealing presentations. It takes time and practice, but with these steps, you should be well on your way to creating your own unique themes.
