Most people that you present to will not see a lot of presentations, and this means that you can feel free to use default presentation themes without your audience having seen them before.
Some of the beautiful themes in Apple's Keynote
A well designed presentation is hard to make, especially for the 90% who cant really design anything that well. Thankfully, when you bought Powerpoint (or Keynote), the program came with a bunch of standard designs that look pretty good, all you have to do is punch in some text and images and viola, you have a nice looking presentation.
These themes are really well designed (on the whole), and have placeholders for you to insert your own text and images, it is that simple.
So next time your making a presentation, play around with the built in themes and see what you can come up with, your audience will thank you.
