Then you press Record, and while you're talking, click the "next slide" button to advance the show (you can also use an audio file from your PC). Free to use.

- Vector Magic

Vector Magic is an image editing software that lets you de-pixelize your images, turning them into vectors. You can upload any image without any registration, select the vectorizing method between three different qualities and, after it is processed, you can download the EPS, SVG, or PNG, and resize it to any size you want since it won't lose quality anymore. Free to use and completely web-based.

- Colour Contrast Check

Colour Contrast Check Tool allows you to specify a foreground and a background colour and determine how good or bad they contrast among themselves. You can use three simple RGB sliders to select your colors, or simple provide the HTML code. Then, it will automatically tell you the brightness and color difference, telling you whether they are legible together or not. Free.
