I found Keynote disappointing in many ways
Authored by: Mitchell on Jan 12, '03 12:42:30AM
There is a subtlety to making your own alpha channel masks, though. If you look in the Keynote inspector carefully, some masters have "Image fill" and others have "color fill", with the image placed the way you did it, with Edit --> Place --> Choose...

If you open the Keynote Package, and find your way to Contents --> Resources --> English.lproj --> Themes there are theme files, themselves packages, that you can open. These contain the tiffs which you can use to create your own masks for other photo layouts. Nice to have a consistent starting point.
