Shapes let you do so much in PowerPoint — once you master them, you can place circles of various sizes one on top of the other to create something that looks like a target. Similarly you can create seemingly complicated arrangements of shapes quite easily to create something that illustrates a concept or idea so much better than just bulleted text. To create any such graphic content, you need to start by inserting common shapes — PowerPoint 2011 makes it easy to do so.
