The use of a color background can allow for more options with text color, but make sure that there is plenty of contrast between text and background, not just in color but also in brightness.
Red, blue and black normally show up the best on a white background. Yellow is very difficult to distinguish from a white background. However, there are some colors that are difficult to read. The judicious use of color can make slides more interesting and can help illustrate a point (such as color-coding certain molecules or parts of molecules throughout the talk). You do not want fancy graphics borders, complicated color gradients and a jumble of colors to distract your audience from the content. Remember to keep it simple - there should be a point to color differences. There are many templates to choose from under this option. If you would like to use one of these ready-made templates, you can find them under Format, Apply Design Template. There are also templates already set up in Powerpoint that have different designs in the background. If you would like your title slide to use a different template than the rest of your slides, there is also a Title Master. If you decide you would like to change the look, changing the Slide Master will change all of the slides in the presentation. The Slide Master saves time by allowing you to create the look of your seminar slides in the very beginning of preparation. This option allows you to create a master slide template that will appear on all of your slides. In the Powerpoint program, go to View, Master, Slide Master. An easy way to set up your slides so that they will all look the same is by using the Slide Master.
It is important for the slides in a seminar to be consistent both in text and color. Keep slides uncluttered, and use minimal special effects - too many fancy flourishes can lead to problems for you and distract or annoy your audience.
