Yes.
No. We don’t sell anything on PowerShow.com. It is a totally free site sponsored by ads via Google AdSense.
- Favoriting and Uploading: We need to know who is Favoriting or Uploading a presentation so we can associate that presentation name with the appropriate profile. Also, if someone Uploads a presentation, and it gets flagged, we need to know who to contact in case they want to dispute their presentation's flagged status.
- Commenting, Flagging, Tagging and Rating: We find that people act more socially responsibly while commenting, flagging, tagging and rating presentations if they are signed up and logged in when they do so.
We need your email address so that we can send a confirmation email to you, to verify that you are a real person and not just a spam-bot. Also, we may need to contact you in case there are any problems with your uploaded presentation. But, don't worry. We promise to keep your email address strictly confidential. We'll never sell it or share it with any other company!
You need to open the sign-up confirmation email that PowerShow.com sent you and click on the included link to complete your signup process. If for some reason, you didn't get that email, please go to the PowerShow.com login page (https://www.powershow.com/user/login) and enter your login information. You will then be asked if you want the confirmation email to be resent. Indicate that you want it resent to you, and you will immediately receive another confirmation email. If the email does not come into your email program's inbox, please check your 'junk' or 'spam' folder, as the email may be in there. (If you find it in your junk mail folder, be sure to add PowerShow.com to your address book and/or trusted senders list so this doesn't happen again.) If you still didn't get the email, it is possible that you entered the wrong email address into PowerShow.com when you signed up. In that case, you'll should try signing up again and be sure to enter your email address very carefully. Then, once you get the confirmation email, click on the link in the email and you should be ready to go!
PowerShow.com accepts these standard PowerPoint formats: PPS, PPT, PPSX and PPTX.
Yes.
PowerShow.com also accurately reproduces PowerPoint presentations with their presenter-specified automatic slide timing, animation effects, embedded audio, video, animated GIFs and hidden slides.
Log into PowerShow.com. Click on the "My Account" link in the upper right corner of the page. Click on the "My Presentations" link. Find the presentation you want to delete and click on its "Delete" button.
The maximum size of an individual presentation can be up to 100MB.
That simply means that the person who created or uploaded the presentation did not authorize us to allow people to download the editable version of the presentation.
Not necessarily. The latest browsers generally do a pretty good job of playing Microsoft PowerPoint presentations. But we have noticed that they may not always be 100% accurate at reproducing all the PowerPoint effects. So, if you want to make sure you are seeing the presentation exactly the way the presenter intended it, then we advise downloading the PowerPoint Viewer from Microsoft.com if you don't already have the latest version of PowerPoint on your computer.
Click here to download it from Microsoft.com (for free).
- The presentation download file may be getting blocked by your browser, or a browser plugin. Look around your browser for a message that a download or pop-up is being blocked, and then click to enable the download or to enable all downloads or pop-ups from this site.
- The presentation download file could be getting blocked by your anti-virus program. Try to open your antivirus program's console or menu and check to see if it is blocking a file. It should give instructions as to how to enable the download.
What we mean by "Share" is that you can embed the presentation into your own website using the embed code we provide or embed it into a social networking website such as Facebook.com by simply clicking on the appropriate icon in the Share dialog, then following the instructions from there. Or you could add a link to the presentation on a bookmarking site such as Digg.com also by clicking on the appropriate icon in the Share dialog, then following the instructions from there.
If the Share button is enabled you can. Otherwise, we are not authorized by the presenter to give you permission to do so.
Generally not. You are still legally responsible for respecting the copyrights of others. And, unless the permission is specifically granted in the presentation or in its description, you should assume that you are not authorized to freely use the content other than for your personal viewing.
Just click on big “f” button under the presentation player (if it is enabled), then follow Facebooks instructions from there. It works the same way for Twitter. For other websites, click on the Share button, then on the icon for the site you want to embed the presentation into. Or use the embed code if there is no icon for that website. If it is not enabled (i.e. if it is grayed out) then the presenter has not granted you the permission to share the presentation with others.
Just use the Send button. It will allow you to use your own email program (which will generally give you access to your own email address book) or PowerShow.com's own email program (which will generally provide the best-looking invitation email).
Yes you can, as long as you are signed up and logged in.
Yes.
That is simply a way for logged in users to quickly give feedback to the comments you find on PowerShow.com.
Yes you can. Go to My Account. Click on the link "Other people's presentations I've favorited". Then, click on the Remove button next to the presentation you want to "un-Favorite".
Yes. Just rate it again. When you do, your old rating will be discarded and only your new rating will be considered in the accumulated ratings for the presentation.
No.
Not necessarily. Before quarantining a presentation (so it doesn't appear to website visitors) PowerShow.com considers the flag category as well as the number of people who have viewed the same presentation and didn't flag it as well as the percentage of viewers who did flag it. Once it is quarantined, an email will then be automatically sent to the uploader to see if he or she wants to dispute the pending removal of the presentation from the website. If the presenter does decide to dispute it, it will be evaluated by duly appointed personnel to make a judgment, based on the website's community guidelines.
A tag is just a representative word or phrase that could be useful for finding the presentation by searchers on PowerShow.com or even by external search engines.
Yes, you can.
