I have a long vertical image. I would like to use animation to have the image
scroll on from the bottom of the screen and off the top. I can only get 1
screen's worth to show.
 
Why do experts always suggest the most complicated way to achieve something?
It is very simple CJ.

If you want your picture to scroll all the way from the bottom of the slide,
up and off the top of the slide:

Drag the picture up so that it is completely off the top of the slide then
from the Task pane choose Custom Animation. Click Add Effect and select
Crawl In from the Entrance option. The default is from bottom so all you
need to do is set the speed to your preference. When you play the slide the
picture will start scrolling up the slide and off the top. This can be on
mouse click or straight awy if you choose After Previous option instead.
 
There is a reason John's post suggests using a motion path instead of crawl:
Crawl is one of the animations that has a limit on how far things will go
when you use crawl (1.5 slide widths or heights)...

Your example is awesome! It's exactly what I'd need. I tried to replace and scale the picture from the frame proprieties, but as soon I change the zoom, the scroll button disappears. Could you please tell how it's done, and more importantly, how can we change and adjust the picture to fit the frame? Thanks!
BTW, the Microsoft link doesn't work anymore!

A sample has been uploaded. Check out the 4th sample here:
