Create slide with no master (or blank master)

I've got a master in my document which applies to all the slides. I'd like to
insert a couple of slides with no master. These are graphics, and I don't
want to clutter up the slide with the design on the master.

How can I suppress the master on a slide, or use a blank master?

I'm using PowerPoint 2003.

Thanks.

Eric,

Unless you've changed the Default Master, I would just go to Format Slide
Design, and slect the Default Design.pot from the list of Available For Use
designs and apply to only the slides you want your graphics on. Then, Format
Slide Layout and chose Blank for each as well.

Cheers

2 ways you can try out.
The first one is to click Format Background.
Then, click on omit content in master located at the bottom.

The second way is to use a new master.
Click View Master Slide Master.
Click Insert New Slide Master. (Leave it as it is so as to get a new blank
master)
Once done, close the master view.
Go to the slide you want, open the slide design panel and select the blank
master.
