We've been having some discussions about the resolution of digital 
projectors and the optimum size of images for projection. Since projectors 
have specific pixel dimensions (just as monitors do), it seems that it's 
futile to include images in PowerPoint presentations that are larger than 
those dimensions.

So for example, if the projector resolution is 1024x768, you should use 
images around 1000 pixels wide, since anything larger is going to be reduced 
to the projector resolution.

Am I on the right track here?
Have people set guidelines for staff creating PowerPoint presentations to 
guide them--if so, what size images do you suggest?

Thanks, as always!
