In this special edition of the Get Creative videocast (video below), you'll learn about the following:

* The Elements Gallery -- Build better-looking documents in Excel, PowerPoint, and Word using new themes, templates, tables, charts, and graphics, as is or modified.

* Office Art -- New image effects include shadows, glows, and reflections.

* Publishing Layout -- While not suitable for commercial printing output, this new workspace is nonetheless interesting to explore.

* Toolbox -- Acts like a suite-wide formatting palette.

* Send slides from PowerPoint to iPhoto

* Save to PDF -- Good for quick proofs, but don't use it for final file output!
