It took me a while to figure out, but you do View->Master->Slide Master and then edit that. Then you save it as a template via File->Save to export it, and to use it you have to do File->Templates->Save and save it in My Templates. Then you can create a new document using it using the wizard. As far as I can see, you import a template from a file using File->Templates->Organise. How to apply a template to an existing presentation is described at http://openoffice.blogs.com/openoffice/2006/05/bringing_the_ma.html I seem to have created a slide design based on the Traversal website look. It's with my previous stuff at http://nova.student.utwente.nl/~lourens/gfx/opengraphics/oscon_2007_presentation_images/ After applying the template some editing is still necessary to get everything to look right; the font size will be too large and a few images need a bit of movement and scaling to get to the right place. Now I just need to update the timeline graphic to match the colours, but I'm going to have some lunch first. Lourens
