If you want to apply the change to selected slides only, select the slides in normal view. Otherwise, the change applies to all slides that follow the design template of the currently selected slide.

On the Format menu, click Background.

Under Background fill, click the arrow on the right of the box, and then do one of the following:
Select a color from the color scheme

Click one of the eight colors displayed.
Select a color outside the color scheme

Click More Colors.
Click the color you want on the Standard tab, or click the Custom tab to mix your own color, and then click OK.
Select a fill effect or picture

Click Fill Effects, and then do one of the following:
To use shading, click the Gradient tab, click a type under Colors, click a shading style, and then click OK.
To use a texture, click the Texture tab, click the texture you want or click Other Texture to select a file and insert it, then click OK.
To use a pattern, click the Pattern tab, select the pattern you want, select foreground and background colors, then click OK.
To use a picture, click the Picture tab, click Select Picture to find the picture file you want, click Insert, and then click OK.
Use the background fill from the slide master

Click Automatic.
Do one of the following:
If you want to apply the background to selected slides, click Apply.
If you want to apply the background to all slides, click Apply to All.
