Tim Meyer created a .ppt template for the International Peer Review Committee that has been extensively used at large presentations (such as NSERC visits) by TRIUMF BAEs and Nigel, that appears to have been quite successful and looks great. I wondered if this might also be added to the style guide as an alternative choice to the one that is there, as it has an off-white background which is preferable in some cases (such as when adding borderless scientific graphs with the standard ROOT off-white background).</div><div><br></div><div>Thanks!</div><div><br></div><div>Chris</div><div><br><div><div>On 16-Nov-09, at 11:09 AM, Rick Baartman wrote:</div><br class="Apple-interchange-newline"><blockquote type="cite"><div>Thanks; this is a great step forward.
