Google Slides is an incredible tool for creating presentations, but did you know that you can also make a background transparent on Google Slides? This trick is useful when you want to create a more customized look for your slides. In this blog post, we will walk you through the process step by step.
Method 1: Using the Available Tools on Google Slides
This is the easiest way to make a background transparent. However, it’s important to note that this method only works for shapes and not for images. Here’s how you can do it:
- Open your Google Slides presentation.
- Select the shape you want to make transparent.
- Click on the Fill color button on the toolbar.
- Select Custom at the bottom of the drop down menu.
- Adjust the transparency slider to your preferred transparency level.
Method 2: Using a Third-Party Tool
If you want to make an image background transparent, you will need to use a third-party tool. We recommend using free online tools that don’t require a sign up. Here’s how you can do it:
- Go to a free online image editing tool like remove.bg or online-image-editor.com.
- Upload the image you want to make transparent.
- Follow the instructions on the site to make the background of the image transparent.
- Download the resulting image and then upload it to your Google Slides presentation.
Remember, Google Slides does not have an in-built feature to make the background of an image transparent. This is why you need to use a third-party tool. Remember to always use tools that respect your privacy and don’t require unnecessary sign ups.
Conclusion
Now you know how to make a background transparent on Google Slides! It might be a bit tricky at first, but with practice, it will become a piece of cake. Remember, the key is to experiment with different tools and methods until you find the one that works best for you. Happy designing!
