PPT design template previews

[srcrosby]

In PPT, when selecting a design template, the previews in the preview pane do
not load. They work, that is, if I select one based on the verbal
description, but I cannot tell what it looks like in the "apply design"
preview window.

Thoughts or help?

Disappearing or blank thumbnails in task panes

(Score one for MSN search on the PPT FAQ home page. Searched for "blank" in
the Google search, but this FAQ didn't turn up. Then I tried "thumbnail."
Nada. Tried "thumbnail in MSN, and it turned up first thing. "Blank" works
in MSN search, too. Cool!)
