Images pop with simple photo editing in Office 2010

This is the first anniversary of the release of Office 2010 with tips and tricks for the most of your Office to the post # 9 in the ten days celebrating series for Office.

The cliche "a picture worth 1,000 words 's" reserves the right, as a large image gets to the point in such a way that can replicate any amount of text. With Office 2010, you can to your advantage: you have no more back and forth to jump between your document and your image editing, since so many tools are directly integrated in. Office will help you to turn slightly good pictures into great pictures, and good documents and presentations in one in the amount of memory.

There are many things you can use images in Office 2010: they correct color, artistic effects like pencil sketch apply, borders set up, rotate shadow, etc.,. But I have a thing for photos, personally, that are mostly black and white, but have some hint of color. It is my favorite trick to show the new photo editing tools. Follow up with me and also this tip you can beautify your Word documents and PowerPoint slides.

I started with the photo below, and you need two copies of the same image to this effect:

When you insert your picture, opens Image tools on the Ribbon. Select the command text wrap Image toolsand click on the text on the option. Then you can simply copy and paste the image, fall to a second picture of the first.

Then I choose one on the back and use the photo format it black and white.

In Tools/image format, select the color control and for the black and white example in the section of color saturation .

Use you then remove background tool on the front, color the image to pop out the part that you want to really show:

Select from the Image tools again remove background and draw that only the part that you want to keep. Then the adding and removing of marking tools on the Ribbon use to pull you through the areas where the remove background tool incorrectly is rates.

Slide the upper picture things finally back on the floor, on line:

And voila! There, you have a composite image effect, can contact you only with very expensive tools and much free time on your hands.

This is of course only a fraction of the amazing things you can do with the integrated image editing tools in Word, Publisher and PowerPoint 2010. plus you can even trim, recolor and format videos in PowerPoint 2010. finding many more tips and tricks for working with pictures on the Word blog and the PowerPoint Blog.
