Hi - i added our logo image to the master slide and made it transparent, so this works for most of our slides, but some slides have screenshots on them , so the watermark is covered and if I use an image over the screenshot, it just looks wrong - any ideas on this, or we might just have to leave it off these slides altogether.
It sounds like you may have to leave the image off the screenshots, if the transparent version is not working for you. If you'd like to share an image of that particular slide, the community may be able to imagine other workarounds.
Maybe you can create a repeating pattern using a smartshape? Just use your logo as a pattern, set the transparency to about 25% and put it on the top layer. On the base layer, have a trigger set to show this layer when it begins. You can create your logo to be about a 50% gray and plenty of empty space around it (make it transparent background in the logo file) so it doesn't prevent the user from viewing the actual slide.
Attached is a quick sample of what I'm talking about. I did my logo in color. You could adjust the transparency so it blocks less of the image.

Can't see why not.
Just add a huge text box with semi-transparent text, and see what happens.

Hi Suzanne! Looks like Bruce is taking care of you here, just let us know how that suggestion works for you and if you need anything further.

Thanks Jerson for sharing an example here with Suzanne!
