• Keep under 10 words each
• One idea per bullet

Visual Balance

• 60% visual / 40% text for engagement
• One key message per slide
• Consistent alignment and spacing

Image Prompt Best Practices

For AI Generation (DALL-E/Midjourney)

"Professional [subject], [style] style, [color scheme],
[composition], high quality, presentation slide background"

Example:

"Professional team collaboration in modern office, corporate style,
blue and white color scheme, wide angle, high quality, clean background
suitable for presentation slide"

For Stock Photos

Use 3-5 keywords: "business team collaboration meeting modern"

Python Export

4. Brand guidelines: Share colors and tone preferences
5. Examples: Reference presentations you like
