      The templates look great and at first sight, you will not expect that you can avail them for free! The default templates available in Microsoft PowerPoint are too simple and color schemes seem boring. These 20 templates will surely pass the taste of every PowerPoint user all around the globe especially teenage girls and boys, music lovers, educators, and businessmen. I commend these templates for their simplicity. A good template like these should not have exaggerated designs and color schemes are not supposed to be too bright. The designs should not block most parts of the whole slide especially the center because this is where contents are usually placed.

    Hi, nice collection, thank you! but these are for me more graphics inserted in a PPT document, with a relatively basic result… some really good templates I like/use are relased by Graphic River. Or you can find other interesting (free ;)) stuffs at: http://www.showeet.com

  21. Rizkip says:

  22. ciciliu says:

    Thanks for the beautiful templates, i think these lovely templates.

  23. PPT2DVD says:

    dvd-ppt-slideshow.com: When you need to create presentations for my lectures at the university with PowerPoint, broke my head thinking of creative and original designs, we must not forget the incredible good effect of a Slide show.

  24. it is so easy to download powerpoint slides from the PPT Search Engine.

  25. Benj says:

    Err, actually they do suck. Design needs to suit the purpose and enhance the subject matter and I’d say that these would overwhelm most of the uses they were downloaded for. Rather keep it simple, look slick and focus on good content that backs up your presso. Each presso is individual.

  26. daxx says:

    Yeah, I agree with Benj. These are stock templates that suck way more than you think. A smart designer wouldnt use these at all when better ones are to be found or created.

    These suck big.

  27. lalar says:

    nice!!!!

  28. Sanjeeb Sahu says:

  37. Stoney says:

    I love the arrogant critics. It is amazing how many clueless people there are in this world. Different people like and need different templates for different presentations. And often in a hurry.
    If you are so wonderful, build your own.

  38. emille says:

    Thanx a lot. It really helps me in my research presentation.

  39. thanks for sharing, engineerblogs.net,very nice

  40. ice says:

    thank you

  41. John says:

    Actually, all of these do pretty much suck. If you want a flashy background that takes the focus away from the actual presentation, then go for it. Tired of seeing these overly busy templates that serve no purpose.

  42. Eko Indonesia says:

    Theses are wonderful..
    Don’t listen to the people who say otherwise..

  43. eri says:

    awasome free template, but do you have any animated ones..?

  44. Dick says:

    WOW!!! These really do suck.

  45. xiaoxiao says:

    but how can i download these templates?

  46. Sergio says:

    First of all please let me thank you for your useful post.

    Since we’ve changed our domain name from poweredtemplates.com to poweredtemplate.com I kindly ask you to change it in your post as well.

    Thank you in advance.

  47. Matt says:

    Hello, thank you for this sample… but to be honest, these are not very professional… These are quite basic…

    We are a team of passionate Powerpoint graphic designers, you can visit our website to see sample of our work here:

    Thank you,

    Matt

  48. Er says:

    These are not usable for professional use. The layout is poor. There is a large imbalance of white to non-white space. Most of the themes are impractical for anything short of a high school presentation. The color balance and palate is off which will make text difficult to read or an eye strain. Many of the slides are not clean and look slapped together.

  49. Nikki says:

    They may not suck necessarily, but people who need professional Powerpoint templates won’t be able to do much with these (no offense). Beyond high school, Powerpoint presentations start getting SERIOUS! Especially in the workplace. I need clean, minimalist style templates with charts, graphs, timelines, and stuff. And I’m willing to pay!

  50. John says:

    Actually, most of those suck, unless you’re a high school or college student that doesn’t understand how to create professional presentations. If you want the oooo’s and aaaah’s over the pretty backgrounds, go for it. A professional template is clean and simple.

  51. Julian says:

    Even if I liked so much these resources I agree with Nikki that people who need professional PowerPoint templates won’t be able to do much with these. However, I don’t feel you’d need to spend money purchasing costly templates. Instead I’d suggest to take a look at http://slidehunter.com that is a free resource to download PowerPoint templates and diagrams. Most of them can be used in business presentations as well, and are free.

    Another good resource to share presentations online is http://slideonline.com it is an alternative to other sharing websites like AuthorStream or SlideShare but with no advertising.

  52. Shane says:

    for simple yet relevant templates for school powerpoint presentations, office powerpoint, and medical powerpoint presentations I always use FPPT’s free powerpoint templates. While for business powerpoint presentations, I now pick SlideHunter business powerpoint templates for reports and business proposals. Guaranteed free templates for powerpoint that don’t suck!

  53. paradis says:

    it is very good for me.for my powerpoint school.thank you for your web

  54. Tremendous! Free templates that don’t suck – awesome! 🙂 Once you find that template, then it’s time to design and write content like a rock star. Don’t forget that your prospect wants to talk about themselves, not you. Don’t fill the presentation with stuff about you!

  55. sunsan says:

    thanks for sharing!

  56. Julien says:

    Thank you for these PowerPoint template resources. Actually you have other several alternatives that worth a look. Google it, and I am pretty sure you could find everything you need for free to help you. http://www.presentationgo.com is definitely a good starting point…
