I admit the demo is rough. I had to quit working on it in order to do my
regular work. Adding a concluding slide shouldn't be hard though. As the
method I used to make the demo is highly inefficient, it would be too
much work to change the font, so I'm not going to do that. Anyway, I
happen to like the font. :)
I didn't realize until you mentioned it that slideshare.net could take
pdf files. I was thinking about putting the demo on Scribd, but not in
its present form. Maybe slideshare.net is a better place. I'll check it out.
One problem, which is a result of the way I made the demo, is the large
size of the pdf. I'm thinking about trying another method which should
decrease the file size dramatically. But that will have to wait for awhile.
