How to Import Multiple Photos Into PowerPoint as Slides
If you have hundreds of photos and want to import them in your Microsoft PowerPoint 2010 presentation as new slides, you have a problem. You can't just select all of them and click "Insert" because that would add them to a single slide. Unfortunately, PowerPoint 2010 is unable to perform this process automatically. The only way to import multiple photos as slides is to use a workaround involving the PowerPoint 2010 photo gallery feature.
Step 1
Launch PowerPoint 2010, but do not open the presentation in which you want to add the images.
Step 2
Click "Insert" at the top of the window.

Step 3
Click "Photo Album" at the top to start a new photo album.
Step 4
Click "File/Disk" and use the file browser to select all the photos you want to insert as slides. You can hold "Ctrl" while clicking to select multiple photos or press "Ctrl-A" to select all of them.
Step 5
Click "Insert" and then "Create" to create a new photo album in a second PowerPoint 2010 window.
Step 6
Select the first slide in the photo album window and press "Delete" to delete it. The first slide is a title slide, so you don't need it.
Step 7
Press "Ctrl-S" in the second window to save the photo album. Type a name in the Name text box. Choose to save it on your desktop and click "Save."
Step 8
Close the photo album window and return to your main presentation.
Step 9
Click "Home" at the top of the PowerPoint window.
Step 10
Click the small arrowhead under New Slide and select "Reuse Slides." The reuse slides menu appears in the right side of the window.
Step 11
Click "Browse" in the Reuse Slides menu and select "Browse File."
Step 12
Use the resulting file browser to select the photo album file you saved on your desktop and click "Open." All its slides are inserted in the Reuse Slides menu.
Step 13
Right-click one of the slides in Reuse Slides and select "Insert all slides." All photos are imported into your presentation as slides.
