Is it possible to retrieve the first slide from a presentation and display

In short: not with PHP. You're going to need a program that can read and
render PHP files, and save them as a static image (i.e. gif, jpg, etc).
You can run this program (if you find one) using PHP, and then use PHP to
resize and manipulate the output image, but PHP cannot natively manipulate
PPT files, nor are there any PEAR packages for that purpose.
Good luck,
