Hi,
I'm using powerpoint 2002 and created a photo album consisting primarily of
clipart images. Everything works fine except for one little oddity. Powerpoint
substitutes the transparent background by adding a green one. I'd like for the
images to retain their transparency or at least be given a white background, if
not, I would at least like to change the color to one that goes well with the
overall look of the template. How do I do this? It won't let me recolor the
background using the picture tool bar. The images are *.wmf.

We've seen some transparency issues with PPT 2002, and I bet that's what
you're running into here. SP-2 is supposed to fix that.
