oooninja.com — PowerPoint's push-down transition has done its 15 years of service, and it's time for something new. Do the sleepy faces in your meetings agree? OpenOffice.org Impress 2.4 upstages PowerPoint with ten 3D transitions rendered in OpenGL.

Sure, but iWork doesn't support OpenDocument, runs only on OS X, and AFAIK can't do Flash exports like OpenOffice.

i wish they would work on better gnome intergration, gnome system fonts for menu's and text for a start, gnome colour chooser instead of the horrid win98 look alike one and even themeable vector(svg) icons that can be themed with the gnome icon theme

This looks like utter crap. How about a Matrix screen meltaway?

This is actually the first thing that came to my head.

Actually, I am a college professor and I end up doing a lot of ooimpress presentations on my Ubuntu laptop. As templates have s-l-o-w-l-y improved I find that the occasional transition effect is quite nice, and some of these could offer a genuine improvement to the preexisting slide transitions. I look forward to this being stabilized.By the way, if you are interested, here are a few of my templates that I've packaged up for easy install: <a class="user" href="http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/ooo-templates-by-sean">http://extensions.services.openoffice.org/project/ ...</a>

I disagree on this one ... some diagrams require clarity, detail and visual impact that just don't come from writing it as you go. Especially if your drawing ability isn't good. I think the only time this is a good idea is for teaching some subjects, but not for presentations as a whole.
