📌 Why this matters
Cropping images to custom shapes transforms standard rectangular photos into circles, stars, arrows, and dozens of other forms that match your presentation's theme. This technique eliminates the need for external photo editing software, letting you create professional-looking slides without switching between applications. Beyond basic aesthetics, shaped images serve as visual cues that guide your audience's attention and reinforce your message - a heart shape for customer testimonials, arrows for process flows, or circles for team member highlights.
