Speedong up html-ized PPTs

I have a fairly extensive web site for my photography classes that include a
number of "html-ized" PowerPoint presentations which all open in new
Windows. My questions revolve around these presentations.

1. These new windows are all small and have to be enlarged to the "normal"
size. Internet Explorer has the F-11 function which will allow the
presentations to run "full screen." Is there any way to have the new Window
with the presentation open in the full-screen mode (as though the user had
selected the F-11 function)?

2. The PowerPoint presentations run fairly slowly- the text comes down
fairly quickly but the photographs take a while to load. I have tried the
following: A: Eliminated all of the PowerPoint navigation and the left panel
file list (navigation is in the slide). This helped greatly, but things are
still slow for the photographs. B: Tried saving the slides as .jpg or .png
files but the image quality suffered. C: Tried converting the presentations
to .pdf files, but this sis not work as well. Is there any way to speed up
the downloading of the images?

Thanks
 
Hi,
Do you have an URL that we could look at? I (and some others) would probably
be able to help you.

1) From my experience, when I converted a PPP (PowerPoint Presentation) to
html by exporting it to a designated folder within my website, it has always
put a link on the bottom right of the page stating "view slideshow" and that
has always opened up in full screen, the ppp norm. (This would be were the
link could also help)

2) IMHO, If you want quality (without losing image quality, not artistic
value) photos, in your presentation, you will have to sacrifice "download"
time of each picture. You may be very used to viewing pictures on the
internet that have been "optimized" for a website. meaning that we have
lowered the quality and size of the photo so that it'll load faster, i.e.,
if you have Photoshop, Image Ready, Photo Elements, Fireworks, Paint Shop
Pro or one of the many others, they have export features to reduce the size
of the picture, which helps to speed up the download.

I hope this helps you some.
