Missing images in powerpoint upload

I recently uploaded a large PPT file (225 M) that had a lot of images.  Several of them do not appear.  I deleted the file and tried to upload again but same thing happened.  Any suggestions?

Hey Arrell5093, sorry to jump in here, but could you clarify if you're able to preview those missing images on your PPT file after downloading it from the website and opening it locally on your device?

Correction... when I download from Dropbox back to my laptop, the missing images show up.

    How large is the PPT file and the images stored inside it Arrell5093?

     

    Can you send us a screenshot of how it looks on your end perhaps?

      The file is 220 MB.  Can you clarify what you want a screen shot of… a slide with a missing image, or something else?
