Having spent the last three days sorting and importing some 300–400 images into Powerpoint, there’s a very useful tip that I learnt. And it meant that a job that could have taken a good week took just a few hours.
Instead of dragging every single image into each slide, go to Insert in the ribbon and click the Photo Album icon. There you can select the images you want, order them and decide how many you want on each slide. It will make a new presentation with all these new slides so you will have to copy the slides back into the original presentation if you want them there.

Yeah, this is exactly what I was looking for. I had over a 100 photos to insert, this saved me two hours of work min.

Hi,
Working in PowerPoint 2007, is it possible to have pictures enter a slide in 10 second intervals?
