Problem w/ Format Picture (size)

[John Woram]

I'm starting a new PP 2003 presentation -- In Slide Show/Set Up Show, Slide show resolution is set to 1024x768. Now, I insert a Picture from file (1024x768 jpg image). The image comes in centered, but at 640x480. So, I left-click image, open Format Picture option, select Size tab, check "Best scale for slide show" and change resolution from 640x480 to 1024x768. Image is now correct size, but partially deflected out of work space. So, I go to Position tab and move the left corner to 0,0. At last, the image is properly sized and placed.


But when I add a new slide, PP has "forgotten" all of my adjustments and I have to start all over again. So I'm wondering: Is there any way to get PP to stop shrinking my images? That is, just insert them into the presentation at whatever size they are.
