This document provides instructions for creating an image scroll effect in PowerPoint. The key steps are: 1. Copy and paste multiple images onto a slide. Align and size the images so they fit together in a strip. 2. Group the images together into a single object. Copy and paste this image strip to create a longer scrolling effect. 3. Align and group the multiple image strips. Add a "fly in" animation that moves the images from right to left, setting the duration to determine the scrolling speed.
