How to Make a Photo Transparent in PPT?
Images, visuals, and shapes play important roles in PowerPoint presentations. You can easily insert an image into a PowerPoint slide or edit it as you want. But what if you need to make a photo transparent in PPT? Making a photo transparent can help viewers focus on the important stuff.
In the design process, the transparency of an image is an important factor. If the text on the slides is less visible due to the background image, make the background transparent to make the text more visible.
Too eye-catching background images and photos in the slides can disrupt viewers’ focus. Instead of using different versions of an image, you can simply change the transparency levels of the background image or any other photo.

The transparency level can be adjusted for the background or any other image added to the slides. In this guide, we will discuss the steps to make a photo transparent in the latest versions of PowerPoint. The steps for older versions are slightly different.
Make a Photo Transparent in PPT
Do you already have the photo you want to make transparent in the slide? If you are starting a slide from scratch, first, you need to insert an image. The image can be part of the slide or the background image for the presentation.
Once you have inserted the image into the slide, follow these steps to change the photo’s transparency.
Step 1: Select the image from the slide you want to make transparent. When you select an image, an additional Picture Format tab will appear in the top menu.
Step 2: Go to the Transparency button in the Picture Format tab and click on it.
Step 3: Click on the Transparency button, and you will see the preset options to change the transparency percentage. These presets have transparency values of 0%, 15%, 30%, 50%, 65%, 80%, and 95%, respectively.
These values make it easier to change transparency and view the changes in real-time. The thumbnail shows how the image will appear after changing transparency.
Step 4: If you want more flexible values, click on the Picture Transparency Options, which will open a new pane on the right of the slide.
Step 5: From the right pane, change the values in the bar, and you will see changes in the photo’s transparency. You can adjust the bar or enter the custom value in the box.
The Picture Format tab has many other features that help you manipulate images within PowerPoint without needing any additional editing software. You can remove, change, or even make certain parts of the image transparent.
