1. Less picture less distraction, but where to put pictures ? At the start of your presentation just to initially get the attention of the audience.
2. Use bullets for texts, never use paragraphs. Use short text or even words only which captures the subject of the presentation.
3. In conjunction with point 1. Use less animations as well. Especially for formal presentations
Additionally : Make sure to know your audience, for professionals, make the presentations short and precise. For much informal audiences you can be playful but always keep in mind not to overshadow the attention from the speaker.
