I was wondering if this was where you would be posting the random picture generator that you mentioned here:

Yeah, I've been waiting anxiously for this one too ^^

I have the same problem as (i think) jenniteacher (or something like that) with only the A and Z slides working...  I can't remember how to do hyperlinks... do I right click on the letter (A B C D etc) and then what? hyperlink.. "to slide" and then type in the slide number?? (I have korean office 2003..... aaargh!)   



Please don't right click the letter, right click the bounding box of the letter, and place a hyperlink that way.  Hyperlinks from letters look ugly.

I am not sure why you are having this problem, I trust you followed the instructions on the first few slides already.  It might be a case of needing to update some of your computer elements.

I had the same problem with one of the earlier Angry Bird releases (only A + Z working), so I decided to try updating PowerPoint.  Installing the Office 2003 Service Pack fixed the issue for me.   http://www.microsoft.com/download/en/details.aspx?id=8

I am having the same problem. I followed this helpful video - http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uh-PUc8DBLI - but the problem is still there.

Anyone have any tips to fix it?

Your scoreboard for Kungfu Panda is great.  Can / will you make a generic one for us to add to our own games?  Alternatively, what do you use to make it?  With the season of desk warming approaching it will be nice to have something new to learn and useful to do.

Hopefully I fixed it.... I saved it in the 97-2003 option and it works for now. Last night I had it working but then this morning it stopped. Hopefully I fixed it for my classes!!

Yes, this is absolutely excellent, professional standard stuff!  Wow! 

I expect different 'sets' will be made for vocab groups and they'll be shared like wildfire on here.   

Congratulations!

i am SPEECHLESS!!!!  Oh my GOSH!!   Sooo just a question ... since I'm slightly technologically challenged... can I make a separate folder on my computer, make different .XML files for different topics, and then when I want to "play" a specific topic (example weather), I just copy the weather xml to the file which I saved the angry birds thing in?  Or do I have to edit the original XML every time? 

I am still speechless though.

You're right.  Complete the XML once, keep it in a separate folder and run it using which ever of my apps you like.

Hey Shane im using office 2010, and I followed your tutorial for enabling macros and VBA, and I also followed you instructions in your signature to change the file type to PPTM, but when I try to open it, office just wants to repair it. I can't get it to work. Is there anything else I can do?

If it asks to repair, then there was an error with the download or extraction.  Try redownloading, or updating Office 10
