To make the background a single color, choose Solid fill. Click the "Color" button to select a color from the palette.

Use the Direction menu to view different gradient pattern options, and the "Gradient stops" slider to adjust where each color begins and ends. Select Picture or texture fill to use any personal photo as your slide background. Click "File" to select the location of your custom image. Or, if you prefer, choose one of the preset textures from the list. You can move the Transparency slider to adjust how opaque the image or texture will appear. If you choose a "busy" image or pattern, you may want to raise the transparency so the text on your slide remains easy to read. If you have PowerPoint 2013 or later, you can select the Pattern fill option to choose from a list of simple preset patterns. Modify the colors in these patterns with the "Foreground" and "Background" menus beneath the pattern palette. If you decide you don't like any of the background options, click the "Reset Background" button to return to the previous background. Otherwise: If you only want the new background to appear on the current slide, click "Close" to save the changes. If you would like every slide in your presentation to have the new background, click "Apply to All."

If you are using Windows XP Home Edition, you can only access the built-in Administrator account from the Safe Mode login screen. To reboot into Safe Mode, restart your computer and hold down the F8 key. Select Safe Mode from the startup menu that appears. If you are the only user of your computer, chances are that your account is already an Administrator account. You can double-check by opening the Control Panel and selecting User Accounts. Find your account and look for the words "Computer administrator" in the account description. When the Welcome screen appears, you will see a user labeled Administrator. Click it to log in as the administrator. Most users will not have an Administrator password, so try leaving the password field blank first.

Washing the grease from your hair may seem like the best solution at first, but daily washing actually causes your hair to produce more grease. Your hair tries to make up for the natural oils you're washing out each day, causing a cycle of increased grease. Wash your hair only 2 to 3 times per week maximum for the best results. Getting your hair wet without washing also causes natural oils to be stripped away and causes your hair to overcompensate in grease. To protect your hair from getting wet in the shower, secure it inside a shower cap. Hair that's prone to grease doesn't need more conditioning near the roots, it needs less. However, not conditioning your hair at all can cause your ends to get dry and damaged-looking. When you use conditioner after shampooing, apply it starting halfway down your hair and go all the way to your ends. Be sure to always rinse conditioner thoroughly from your hair, or use a leave-in conditioner. On days that you're not shampooing, you can get rid of style creases or cowlicks by rinsing the creased parts of your hair and applying conditioner there as well. Hot water opens the cuticle of your hair and strips more natural oils from your hair. Hot water also causes your pores, including the ones on your scalp, to produce more sebum, or thick oil. This thick oil will start traveling down your hair strands from your scalp as soon as you leave your hot shower. For the best results, keep your shower water as cool as you can, especially when rinsing shampoo and conditioner from your hair. Cool water closes the cuticle of your hair, which will help to keep moisture in. Using too much shampoo with each wash can lead to build-up and make your hair look heavy and greasy. When squirting shampoo into your hand to use, make sure you use no more than a large coin amount, like a quarter or two-pence piece. You may need more or less depending on the length and thickness of your hair. If you accidently squirt too much shampoo into your hand, remove some of it before starting to apply shampoo to your hair.
