Is there away to have to images simultaneously, one coming from the left and
one coming form the right to move towards the center of the page. I was
trying to use the Custom Animation with the Fly In special FX on each image
so they can merger in the middle but what happened is that I cant not find
a way to synchronize the 2 effects. SO! what I get is one animation executes
in 2sec and then the other starts and does its thing. Im not new to the
world of animation, I have use Flash and LiveMotion before, but because of
external powers I have to make this slide show in PP.

I very much appreciate you input, Thank you

Did you set the second one to animate "with Previous"? That should give you
what you want.
 
Simultaneous animations will work, but are only options in PowerPoint XP,
2002 and 2003. Earlier versions (PowerPoint 97 and 2000) don't allow for
real simultaneous animations.

I was working at work on powerpoint 2000 and that is why I Could not sync
the animations. I do have PP version 2002 at home which I'm trying at the
moment and I got it to work.

Thank you

That's good, but if you plan to show the presentation on PPT 2000 or 97,
those animations you so carefully set in 2002 will not work in the lower
versions.
 
.. . . Unless you save them as a PPS and have your viewers use the latest
version of PowerPoint 2003 Viewer. (in other words the "Advanced"
animations functions in PPT2002 and XP, are not viewable in earlier versions
or PowerPoint. But they are viewable in PPT 2003 viewer (and in HTML for
that matter)

Good luck

Justin
