I have a PP presentation without text that I would like to add to a web
site. I need to have fade, no sound, and full screen with a timed exposure
to each slide, hopefully variable as in PP. I have tried every conceivable
free download and they all seem to have a funky appearance or their own
logo. This is a corporate site for us so I just need to have the slides
roll one after another without any adjustments. Maybe just hold at the end
or loop but thats about it. This is full screen without the list of slides
at the side.

I would sincerely appreciate any and all direction anyone could offer. I
dont want to learn Front Page just to try to recreate a PP show.

If I understand your needs correctly, our PPT2HTML addin will do what you need.
Full-screen is a bit more complicated than it might appear at first, as it's
impossible to predict how large a given user's screen might be, but it should
be possible to fill the screen with a background color and "float" the slide
image within that. Fade should be possible in IE, if memory serves; not sure
of other browsers.

In any case, have a look at the free demo then if you like, give me a shout at
steve at-sign pptools dot com for a bit of a push-start. Sometimes it takes
that and we're happy to help out.
 
I did try the software and if my memory serves me correctly ( I am running
1280 x 1024 ) I had a large frame right and left. Also the fade between
slides dropped out. I couldn't find a way to resole this although I did
like the simplicity of it.

You can change the size of the image that it creates ... the default is
relatively small so that it doesn't overwhelm users of smaller monitors. Set
that in the preferences dialog. Try, say, 1200 pixels and experiment from
there.

This explains how to pick up the transition effects and times:

AutoAdvancing Presentations, Slide Transitions
http://www.rdpslides.com/pptools/ppt2html/FAQ00166.htm
 
I got the size increased but the code for the auto advancing didnt work no
matter what. I am at 4Seconds for some and on second for others . No go.
 
1. First identify the name of each HTML slide...do that by right clicking
"properties" on each slide.

2. Place in each slide the following code in the <HEAD>
section :

<META http-equiv="refresh" content="3; URL=nextslide.htm">
<META http-equiv="Page-Enter" content="blendTrans(Duration=3)">
<META http-equiv="Page-Exit" content="blendTrans(Duration=3)">

Change the transition time ( 3 secs in this example ) to whatever you wish.
The "blendTrans" produces the fade-in, fade-out effect in IE Explorer.

3. Regarding the automatic "open full screen" approach, it is usually done
with a "window.open" tag, but then it must be remembered that this method is
usually cancelled with popup window blockers in most browsers, so there's
the risk of your pres being closed. I'd advise you to make the presentation
show up in a new window ( target="_blank" ) and include instructions for
resizing pressing the F11 key.

Hope I've helped....

Thank you ! It looks great and I will tackle the fullscreenthing next after
I figure out how to specify which slide goes next. Very sorry to be a
bother but although I can design anything in CAD Front Page is totally new.
Appreciate your help.

Have a look at Gus' suggestion and my reply. If that still doesn't get you
there, again, feel free to email me.

Or with PPT2HTML, you could put this in the template so you don't have to edit
each and every slide's HTML. One edit would do it. Substitute this for the
first line:
