Inserting a photo from a file

I am inserting photos from a file (from Windows XP) and the photos insert
fine, (although I have to scroll up/down and left/right to view the entire
photo).  When I view the slide show, only a part of the photo is displayed.  
I cannot figure out how to have the entire photo displayed in the slide show.

Hi,
After you insert the image, you will need to resize it to limit it within
the bounding areas of the slide. Anything that is off the slide area will
not be displayed during the slideshow.

Games,

This sounds like the photo you have inserted is 'bigger than your slide
area'

You need to click and drag (to resize) any of the corners of the picture, to
make it fit the 'slide area'

Hi Games,
You will need to resize the image like what TAJ and Shyam have said.

Another way you can try also, will be to add trigger animation, then add up
and down buttons. After you are done, you can click on down button to have
the image scrolling down to show the bottom half of the image, and clicking
on the up button will have the image scrolls back.

To do so, you will need to use motion paths. If you are interested, check
this tutorial out and see if you understand the concept:
