Title: "Progressive" Lexington-Concord-Battle Road Powerpoint map needed
Post by: Unbridled Liberty on December 28, 2012, 12:50:34 AM
Have an indoor 'seed coming up, as well as a Libraryseed where I will have a Powerpoint protector available.  I would like a Powerpoint map that does not have all the arrows and wording on it like the NPS PDF map.  I'm looking for a map that starts out plain on Powerpoint slide#1 and adds one event at a time with each progressive slide.  Hope that makes sense.  Anybody have such an animal?

No responses so I'm doing it myself; it will be a PowerPoint with a series of about 7 maps based on the NPS maps.  Should have it done this week.  Anybody who wants a set please  PM me with your email.

What you could do is use prezi instead of powerpoint and the zoom function will allow you to focus on one area.

Yes, you could.  Send me the link when you are done.   ;)

Sorry, using prezi for a different Appleseed related project now.  Assign some poor, unwitting Kentuckian to do it.

I've been tossing the idea around of creating a simplified battle road map both our library seeds, and appleseeds.  If you've worked something up I'd sure like to see it.

I have uploaded my whole Libertyseed presentation v1.0 to Dropbox.  The progressive map series is embedded in the presentation.  I made this "PowerPoint" with LibreOffice (free @ http://www.libreoffice.org/).  Be aware that it is 35 MB and it is a work in progress.  If you want a copy, just PM me and include your email address.

PM Incoming - I'll get it and post it to our server for future downloads.

And yes, please people, get out of the MS Office junk and get LibreOffice. I use it daily and it's pretty good stuff. I can open/edit Office files 95% of the time perfectly, only have problems when it's in the docx format. Have y'all read the junk Bill Gates is spouting recently? Reason enough to give up MS Office in itself.

Not sure to tell you the truth - been so long ago when this thread was done I can't remember if I ever received a copy for our server or not. I'll PM UL and see.

As of today, I have sent the Dropbox link to everyone who has requested a copy.  If anybody has not received it, check your spam folder.  If it's not there, let me know.  You can email me directly at unbridledliberty@yahoo.com
