As you get pictures and information for your slide show YOU NEED TO put the URL's (website addresses) where you got the pictures and info into the bibliography.
Make sure you put the URL (i.e. www.igotmypicturehere.com) of the website that the pictures and information comes from in your bibliography as you go - The pictures DO NOT come from google.com or bing.com. Google and Bing just points you to the website where the picture actually comes from.
As you add more slides, drag the bibliography to the bottom in the left column where you see "thumbnails" of all of your slides.
Under the Home tab, click on the New Slide button.
In the "Click to add title" box, type in "Bibliography"
In the text box below the title, copy and paste the website URLs (www.'s) for the webpages that you get your pictures and information.
