• PowerPoint templates for download

Like using a sticky note in your workplace? Then why not incorporate them into the presentation? 🙂

If you are looking for inspirational presentation ideas to enhance your PowerPoint slides, then we encourage you to try adding post-it notes, also called sticky notes.

We have designed a collection of  creative sticky notes graphics   that you can download and use in your presentation. This way, you can make an original slide that easily will catch attention.

Note: All pictures below can be found in  Sticky Notes icons PPT set  (see details by clicking the pictures). 

Where to apply Sticky Note and Tape elements?

Using these creative shapes you can easily freshen up the slide, but it will still look professional. Here are some examples of how you can enhance PowerPoint presentations:

• outlining the main message

• creating TODO lists

• placing descriptions and checklists

• representing business acronyms , such as SMART goals explanation on this blackboard

• illustrating kanban board –  simulating real paper post-it wall

You can get a PowerPoint editable version of all Sticky Notes  here.  

Besides adding these shapes to PowerPoint slides, you can use them also in other documents – eBooks, Excel sheets, also Keynote, Prezi, and other tools. For MS Office apps a simple copy & paste of the data chart or symbols will work. For other tools (Canva, Prezi..) saving icons as image  and adding them as a picture will do the work too.

What’s inside the Sticky Notes, Pin, and Tape elements set?

The collection contains various graphical elements for PowerPoint – sticky notes, pins, and adhesive tape pictures. You can choose colors to correspond with your brand or the color scheme and layout of your presentation.

The visuals collection consists of:

• 6 variations of various color sticky notes cards (yellow post-it, white post-it, paper block card, rectangle, and square shape) with transparent shadow and background
• 4 color variations of  a pin symbol with transparent background
• 8 adhesive tape shape variations with non-transparent, semi-transparent filling, and transparent background
• additional icons: quote mark , arrows , figure

All creative shapes and usage examples above are from our infoDiagram PowerPoint Diagrams collection. It contains picture shapes for enhancing PowerPoint presentations, which can be easily edited and added to your slides.

Post It Note Template

What do you think of this template.

Product details

Each of us has used stickers at least once in our lives. This is a handy tool to remind your loved ones or colleagues to do something or remember to take it with you. Show effective work management with this post-it inspired powerpoint template! You’ll find this template easy to edit, change colors and update text. Well-organized, remarkable visual aesthetics, and simple illustrations – your audience won’t be able to take their eyes off of this presentation.

Let’s take a closer look at each of these five slides and see how you can put them into practice. The first slide contains several notes, each with a different color. This slide will primarily be useful to the scrum master when they prepare their weekly sprints. He can indicate user stories, what tasks are in the process, what has been sent for testing, what has already been done. At each meeting, the arrangement of the stickers changes, and thus the progress of the work is displayed. It is easier for team members to absorb the information and the amount of work remaining. One of the main scrum techniques is positioning notes on sticky notes. The second slide has circular notes. You can use these notes in your presentations to add appeal and draw your audience’s attention to important aspects of your presentation. You can use a sticky note to draw attention to what experts say or key data on a slide. Bright stickers will help draw attention to important events or dates. The next slide is represented by stickers stylized as sheets with paper clips. Salespeople can use these stickers to prepare for a customer meeting. Also, this slide can be used by companies involved in organizing holidays. For example, you can use stickers as reviews of people who ordered an event show from you. You can also use the stickers from this slide if you need to draw the audience’s attention to some numbers from your presentation. The next slide has a set of stickers in a variety of colors. You can use them in preparing your courses and lectures by focusing the audience’s attention on the terms and rules of the courses. You can also use these stickers when preparing instructions to make them look more attractive. The last slide is executed as a sequence of actions. You can indicate the milestones of your action plan here. You can also use these stickers when preparing company history information.

The template comes in five varieties with different backgrounds that can match your brand aesthetic. Every team has a unique way of working. Using a post-it design inspiration, this template will flex to your unique processes. Visually show sequential steps, progression, approvals and tasks for a process or project. Whether your business is small or large, this template will ensure that your team’s tasks and processes are verified to completion. With this playful template and post-it metaphor, staying on track won’t seem like strenuous work. You can independently change the arrangement of blocks and the color scheme of the slides in accordance with your corporate colors. This template will be useful for all project managers, product managers, team leaders and business coaches. This template will take its rightful place in your presentation collection.

Create your custom post-it note in Power Point

Post-it notes are still popular in a lot of e-learning interactions like drag and drop or multiple

response. They’re nice and easy way of holding content, where text is often presented by handwritten font. To make it look more real just fold down a corner of the note, add some shadow underneath and fill the shape with any color you want.

There are a lot of pages you can download these notes for free but..the satisfaction of creating something by yourself is worth spending less than 1,5 minute of designing in PowerPoint (it’s really quick - it took me 80 seconds – you can watch it here ).

So here are 4 easy-to-follow steps in creating a custom post-it note:

Draw a square, then click it right and select EDIT POINTS, then move the corners and points a little bit so you get a quite unique and interesting shape.

Create another shape (square or a rectangle) and place it where you’d like to have the corner to be folded. Select both shapes (the order of selecting is important, so first select the note, then the new shape) and use SUBTRACT from MERGE SHAPES group (if you don’t have this group anywhere in your tabs/quick access tool bar, go to Customize quick access toolbar/More commands/All commands/Merge shapes, select ADD and click OK.

Create a triangle and place it nicely in the corner you’ve just cut. Fill it with slightly darker color than the base of your note (adding gradient fill is also a nice touch). There's also an alternative option to step 2 where you can use Fragment instead of Subtract where a ready to use rectangle will be created as an output of this combination, so there would be no need for step 3 in this process.

To add a shadow underneath: copy the note, fill it with black/dark gray, then in SHAPE EFFECTS, select SOFT EDGES, 25 points. Send the shadow to back of the note, change its opacity, resize it, edit its points if needed. Group everything and your post-it note is ready to use.

This is how a basic note is created but you can go into variety of papers like: ruled line or graph-ruled note, a piece of paper torn out from spiral notepad or add colored semi transparent adhesive tape pieces onto it – your imagination is the limit.

Here are 8 designs of different post-it notes I’ve created as a freebie in PowerPoint (freebie 16). They are all customisable, so feel free to resize, recolor and reuse in any e-learning project. Enjoy!

Create presentations that truly flow: Post-it notes, not PowerPoint

Do you have to give a presentation in the near future? If so, turn off the computer.

Presentations can be prepared just as well without PowerPoint - what’s more, you can ensure greater attention from your audience.

But how is that supposed to work? After all, for many preparing PowerPoint slides is an essential part of the preparation. That's just how it's done:

• Set your goal First, think about what you really want to achieve with your presentation. What is your goal? Do not say "to inform" at this point. That's not enough for a good talk. A string of pure facts is boring for the audience. There is usually something else behind the goal of "giving information". Think about it: what is it that you really want to convince your audience of?
• Write down priorities on post-it notes Now take a pad of post-its and a pen. Define the content-related priorities with which you want to achieve your goal. Write down keywords on individual post-its. Finally, put the little yellow pieces of paper in order. Why does this work? Because with post-its, you consider dramaturgy.

My suggestion is to use Post-its to prepare a PowerPoint presentation

• Building a suspense curve A good talk takes its life from a good story. The presentation should surprise at the beginning and convince in the end with a goal-oriented final appeal. Re-arrange the post-its in different sequences: What comes at the beginning of the lecture, what comes at the end? How do you best create a suspense curve?
• . Use PowerPoint slides selectively PowerPoint slides should only be used during your presentation if the slides offer real added value. For example, if you underpin your statements with a meaningful chart, or create emotions with a suitable image.

How to Create Sticky Note Pictures using PowerPoint Shapes

Last updated on March 5th, 2024

A Post-it note (also known as Sticky Note) is a piece of paper stationery with a re-adherable strip of adhesive on the back that was coined to 3M. Post its were designed for temporarily attaching notes to documents and other surfaces but nowadays this concept has been spread among many different sectors, topics and interests. In computers and IT, post its can also be represented as images and using shapes in PowerPoint is a good way to represent post it in a slide and then save them as picture.

We will show here how to design a sticky note in PowerPoint and then use the Save As Picture feature to save it as a JPG or PNG image with transparency. This can be really helpful for many different purposes, especially if you need to share the picture in a board, print it or use it for any other purpose.

Who Invented Sticky Notes? Did you know the post it was first invented by an employee of 3M in 1968? Dr. Spencer Silver was a chemist at 3M Company who  invented a unique, low-tack adhesive that would stick to things but also could be repositioned multiple times. He was trying to invent a super-strong adhesive, but he came up with a super-weak one instead.

First, you can insert many different post it or sticky notes into the PowerPoint slide by inserting a shape. Look for the shape with a folder corner, that will best fit for a post it.  The folder corner shape can be found under Basic Shapes.

Then, you can duplicate the shapes to make as many post it you need into the slide. Moreover, you can use the green dot in PowerPoint to rotate the post it and make it look more realistic. Change the background (learn more how to make a shape with solid fill in PowerPoint ) or use some gradients to fill the background of the PowerPoint shape.

Did you know? The original color of a post it was canary-yellow, but nowadays post it of many different colors are printed or used online, even white post it notes .

Finally, if you want to save the shapes as a picture, you can select the shapes and right click to choose Save as Picture… option.

Although sticky notes are now available in a wide range of colors, shapes, and sizes, Post-it notes are most commonly a 3-inch square, canary yellow in color. A unique low-tack adhesive allows the notes to be easily attached and removed without leaving marks or residue. You can also use post it for project management tasks, indeed Agile Development and Lean Methodologies uses post it and sticky notes in boards to represent tasks. You can download free agile PowerPoint template , Scrum templates and roadmap template for PowerPoint demonstrating this idea.

Another great idea to use post it is to combine different groups of tasks that you can identify with different colors, for example if you have many different categories for your tasks (analysis, development, design, etc.). You can edit the text inside the shape to add the task name or group description and here is a sample.

You can create custom post it shapes using PowerPoint and then export it to any other editing software or MS Office program, for example if you need to use post it in Word or Excel. You can also use the same approach to design your own PowerPoint templates with custom post it.

I am visiting Volgograd in late November and want to photograph the giant monument to Lenin near the Volga-Don Canal entrance from the perspective of the water. Does anyone know a river-taxi service that can be contacted in Volgograd, or else a ferry that passes by this point?

Haven't tried it personally, but here's an option:

Volgograd: History and Myth

10 October 2010

A solemn but reverent air of respect hangs over Volgograd. Long a small military garrison, then a rapidly growing center of commerce and transport, Volgograd is best known to Russians and foreigners alike as the site of the bloodiest battle of the Second World War. Today, Volgograd is an industrial city and transport hub with the Volga River as its heart. It embraces its past while surging ahead, but must also face new economic and political challenges.

Volgograd’s Geography

The city was founded as a military garrison in the late 16th century, shortly after Russia first conquered the area from the Astrakhan Khanate. While its immediate purpose was to help secure and govern the new territory, grander long-term designs were likely in mind when it was given its original, royal name of Tsaritsyn.

Located at a strategic bottleneck of the Volga River, the city would have been well-placed to defend Russia’s northward territories from foreign armies advancing from the south. It is also well placed to act as part of one of the silk road trade routes running from Europe to Asia. The surrounding area, known as “the Great Steppe,” and characterized by its arid, dry climate and grassland plains is well suited to grain production, which was once Russia’s biggest export to Europe and one of its main sources of wealth and international “soft” power.

Volgograd’s Early History

Volgograd, founded in a restive, new region existed as a small military and trade settlement for nearly 300 years. Tsaritsyn initially had to defend itself constantly from Cossacks, Crimean Tatars, and even from its own troops mutinying in the new borderland.

However, by 1691, the city was stable and prosperous enough to support a customs house. Salt had emerged as a primary good, and the settlement maintained a small population while attempting to develop a stable agricultural home base in the region. However, it was only after arrival of the arrival of the Volga-Don railroad in 1862 that urban development began on a much larger scale.

The city was transformed into a transportation hub serving the surrounding agricultural industries and wider trade networks connecting the Black and Caspian Seas to the West and East and Moscow to the North.

Soviet Volgograd

Shortly after the city had developed into a major commercial center, the Russian revolution occurred. The city was captured early on by Bolshevik troops and, although Tsarist forces made several attempts to capture the strategic location, it remained under the control of the Red Army for the vast majority of the Russian civil war.

Stalin’s Five-Year Plans eventually turned the city into a major industrial center and continued to develop its transport infrastructure. Grand long-term designs can again be seen in the decision to rename the city “Stalingrad” in 1925.

The strategic city was once again the site of fierce fighting during WWII. The Nazis attempted an aerial blitzkrieg, turning most of the city to ruble early in the war. The battle raged for nearly a year and half, with the Nazis nearly taking the entire city and then being pushed back in one of the most dramatic and bloody battles in all of world history. Well over one million military and civilian casualties were sustained.

Mill Gerhart, a granary founded by Alexander Gerhart, a descendant of Volga Germans who colonized the Lower Volga region in the late 18th century, remained one of the city’s few Soviet holdouts as the Nazis advanced. The tall, strong mill had easy access to Volga and served as a fortress for the Soviets, withstanding constant heavy bombardment. Today, the remains of the building have been left as they were as a reminder and testament to the city’s agricultural origins and continued resilience.

With the advent of the Volga-Don canal in 1952, Volgograd gained a direct water route to the Black Sea, providing inexpensive and easy access to the Mediterranean, Atlantic, and beyond. The Soviets then used Volgograd, far inland and well-protected from naval forces, as a major shipbuilding port and steel production center, fed in part from the upstream Ural Mountains. These industries remain a large part of Volgograd’s economic presence in the region.

One of the Volgograd region’s crowning achievements was the construction of the Volga Hydroelectric Station, the largest of its kind in Europe. Since its completion in 1961, the station has proved an economic boon to Volgograd, providing jobs, a source of renewable energy, and irrigation opportunities. Commerce and transport in the region have also benefited, as the dam also serves as bridge linking rail and road networks over the Volga.

In large part fueled by the dam’s continuing construction, Volgograd saw a major a population boom in the 1950s. An entirely new “micro city”, Volzhskiy, formed on the opposite bank of the Volga to support workers there. Today, Volzhskiy has grown significantly, and is considered essentially a suburb of Volgograd.

Another, perhaps better-known construction project is “The Motherland Calls!” statue, completed in 1967. Standing atop Mamayev Kurgan, the site of heated conflict during the Battle of Stalingrad, the statue is a 279-foot tall allegorical representation of Mother Russia. Today, it is one of the area’s major tourist attractions.

Modern Volgograd: Industry and Environment

Evidence of Volgograd’s industrial past and present is noticeable throughout the city. Its busy river port, a gathering place for the city’s locals, processes over 10 million tons of cargo annually. Oil, minerals, and grain top the list, indicative of the region. Factories dot the banks of the Volga, including the Red October steel factory and the iconic Volgograd Tractor Factory, famous for once supplying equipment and tanks to the Red Army during WWII.

Today, a third of the population works in the industrial sector. However, environmental problems also plague the city and its river. In addition to industrial pollutants, Volgograd’s urban sprawl, which snakes along an incredible 50 miles of the Volga, and low population density, contribute to long commutes and high emissions from road transport. Even the creation of Volgograd’s prized dam has endangered local fish and wildlife.

To help alleviate these problems, in 2011, for the first time in almost three decades, the metro was extended to include three new stations in more heavily residential neighborhoods south of the city center. The Volgograd Bridge was completed in 2009, a 13-year-long engineering project that hopes to create a new “East-West” transport corridor providing easier access to Central Asian republics, as well as the Russian cities of Saratov and Astrakhan. In 2005, Volgograd broke ground on “Volgograd City,” a major business and residential development complex that aims to increase population density and thus reduce the need to commute.

Volgograd’s river port, while currently serving as a dated, multi-purpose entertainment complex, has plans to partner with the neighboring port in Volzhskiy in developing a new large-capacity terminal, as well as an extensive modernization and enlargement of Volzhskiy’s port. Other proposed long-term waterfront projects include an aquarium, a port history museum, and restaurants featuring local cuisine. Coupled with plans to completely overhaul the city’s aging airport and stadium in its preparations as a host city for the 2018 World Cup, Volgograd obviously has its sights set on maintaining its status as a strategic transport hub.

Volgograd is working to improve its capacity as a tourist destination as well, attracting visitors from across Russia and beyond. IN addition to “The Mother Land Calls,” this “Hero City” pays tribute to its war-torn past with its Alley of Heroes in the city center, a who’s who of fallen soldiers and Red Army patriots. The Panorama Museum of the Battle of Stalingrad contains artifacts from the war, as well as a full panoramic view of the defeat of the German forces in Stalingrad.

More recently, Volgograd has become a popular ecotourism destination, due in part to its reservoir, river cruises, and overall favorable climate. The Volga-Akhtubin floodplain, one of the last untouched areas of the Volga river valley, is especially renowned for its wildlife and abundance of lakes.

Modern Volgograd: Politics and Government

Volgograd, home to some one million people, is also the capital of its surrounding oblast, which is also known as Volgograd. Both political entities have been the site of several many post-Soviet scandals and upsets.

Politically, the Communists have remained relatively strong in the area. Roman Grebennikov, a young, body-building Communist was the elected mayor of Volgograd in 2007 in what, at the time, was a major political upset for the ruling United Russia Party.

The new, strong-willed mayor continued to make waves, clashing with the United-Russia-controlled city duma and Anatoly Brovko, the governor of the Volgograd Oblast, and also a United Russia member. Eventually the governor led a major push to abolish the office of mayor and replace it with a “city manager” position that would be appointed and beholden by the city duma.

Grebennikov was removed from office in 2011. He was the third Volgograd region mayor in just 18 months to be dismissed. Rallies were held in his support but Volgograd remains to this day with only an “acting head” rather than a mayor.

In early 2012, Brovko himself stepped down after United Russia faired relatively poorly in the Federal Duma elections held in his oblast. He had never been popular and was widely accused of leading attempts to tamper with the vote to improve United Russia’s results against the rival Communists. His replacement, Sergey Bozhenov, was almost immediately hit will allegations of corruption soon after taking office. However, he has also since created public councils of influential regional officials geared towards proactive problem solving and taken many other actions that have served to invite participation of the public in local governance. His support, as well at that for United Russia, has been rising.

This year, a popular referendum decreed that Volgograd will temporarily change its name to Stalingrad several times per year on days that coincide with military holidays. This decision embodies the mindset of a city whose past is so undeniably intertwined with its present.

Volgograd Today: A Tale of Two Cities

Culturally and demographically, Volgograd, like many areas of the Russian southwest, exhibits influences of various regions, interweaving cuisine, entertainment, and ethnic backgrounds from Russia, Central Asia, the Middle East, and the Caucasus.

In contrast to its more grizzled reputation as an industrial mecca, Volgograd has long nurtured a strong appreciation for the arts and education. It boasts numerous institutes of higher education, including Volgograd State Pedagogical University, one of the oldest and largest institutes of higher learning in the Volga region.

An active theater culture has flourished in Volgograd since the time of the tsars, and, during the Communist heyday of the 1960s and 1970s, venues such as the Volgograd Municipal Musical Theater attracted droves of Soviet playwrights to its Volga riverfront location. In 1992, the State Don Cossack Theater was founded. It remains the only theater in Russia dedicated to Cossack traditions. Similarly, Volgograd’s puppet theater, dating back to 1936, stages performances steeped in local, regional, and Russian folklore.

Stepping into Volgograd is, in a sense, stepping into a tale of two cities. From the grit of industry and war has emerged a slightly more polished and invigorated metropolis. With an eye on the future, Volgograd has begun to attract investment to build a more modernized industrial river port and business center of the Russian southwest. There is little doubt Volgograd will continue to grow, expand, and surprise, having always occupied a strategic and pivotal position in Russia.
