I am trying to import jpeg files into my presentation and can't find a way to re-size the graphic once it is imported. I would hope there is a way to do this, but just can't seem to find it. Any help appreciated!
This is not possible with Proclaim at the moment.

A work-around I use is to make a slide either in Adobe Photoshop or PowerPoint, save the files or slides as jpg files, the. Upload them as backgrounds for a Content slide. I don't generally use Proclaim to design slides at all. My secretary does on occasion... But if it involves much use of graphics, Proclaim AT THIS POINT is limited.
When I do this in Photoshop, I create a blank document in the aspect ratio i need for my screen, in my case, 1920x1080, transparent background (or whatever color I need), and I can drop graphics to my hearts content. Then I flatten the layers, save as a jpg file, and off we go. Takes 2 minutes... PowerPoint is easy as well. Make sure you choose the correct aspect ratio.
This was discouraging to me initially, but then I realized how trivially easy it was to make my own slides and import them into Proclaim. Then it got even easier when I taught my secretary to do this... Haha...
A caution, though. If these are announcement slides, you have to set the timings yourself. Proclaim will not actually be aware of any text on the graphic because it's all graphic. If you create the slide in Proclaim and put text in through Proclaim, it will set the timings based on the amount of text you put in there. If you create the slide somewhere else, it changes too quickly. Learned this the hard way...
