Thanks for asking. The problem is so simple from PowerPoint view. I want
to place a logo of my academic institution on the front page, above the
slide title. I can guess its x,y coordinates, but cannot understand how
to place it there.
I know something about overlays, but it seems that they can add an image
to a text already placed somewhere. I have no text, I just want to place
an image at arbitrary location at one page.

Btw, I most like small navigation buttons in the bottom ) Good idea to
something alike to Simpleslides.

With simpleslides, you will need to create your own "style module".
Currently, there is no documentation for it, but here is the gist of
creating your own style.
Simpleslides provides four overlays, simpleslides:background:horizontal,
simpleslides:background:vertical, simpleslides:background:title,
simpleslides:background:ornament.
The title background is placed on the title page, the horizontal and
ornamanet backgrounds are placed on all pages other than
\IncludePicture[vertical] where the vertical and ornamenet backgrounds are
placed.
If you to place a logo at a specific position, use
\startuseMPgraphic{simpleslides:MP:ornament}
StartPage ;
metapost code to draw/place logo at a particular location
StopPage ;
\stopuseMPgraphic
and then
\defineoverlay
[simpleslides:background:ornament]
[\useMPgraphic{simpleslides:MP:ornament}]

Well, for one thing, the module clearly says in its manual that this
is not its aim: "The module is meant for presentations which will be
shown on a digital projector. They have no interactive elements (such
as buttons or hyperlinks) and no navigational tools (such as table of
contents)." Hence the name "simple-slides." I have never understood
what these navigation buttons are good for when I watched
presentations. But of course, if users think it's a good idea, Aditya
and I may consider adding them.
And another thing that's on my mind: Vyatcheslav, you have been asking
a ton of questions lately. You have received quite a few answers, but
you have never replied (unless to ask further questions). I'm not
complaining about a lack of manners, but it would be good to know if
your problem has been solved, if the solutions work etc.

Can you elaborate? Do you want the same images to appear in all slides in
the background (like a corporate design), or do you want to include
multiple images on a single page, say two images side by side?

Hi,
no, there is not yet code for this. I usually do it "by hand," but if
this is something you need/use often, it would be relatively easy to
provide a macro for it.

Hello,
Can I arrange *multiple* images per a page in specified positions (x,y)
using simpleslides module?
