Some graphics show how to build houses, buildings boats, or any specific design you want. This graphic design gives a layout on how to build the item.

To show numerical information, you can use a bar, line, or pie graph. An example would be for a business to show the financial growth or decline. This helps the reader understand what is going on easier.

Some programs like photoshop offers a way for you to alter your pictures so that you can make your point or just have some fun making it look better. With photoshop you can change colors, people, and make graphics that would be appropriate with your information.

Tips for using graphics:
- Keep your graphics simple
- Use the least amount of words as possible
- Make sure the graphic has explanation close by

Nice post! I like how you used a lot of pictures and how you wrote a simple little paragraoh which did not overwhelm the post. Good thinking about putting visual aids to further explain rather than just using text.
ReplyDeleteThis is a nice post. This post basically goes hand and foot with my blog subject for this week. You talked about the different kinds of visuals you can use and I'm supposed to go over how to design them. Great job. I like how you used visuals to help with your post on visuals.
