“A picture is worth a thousand words,” once noted Confucius, the Chinese scholar. But there is a corollary that he failed to add: “And a picture shouldn’t take a thousand words to explain.” Yet too many pictures seem to follow the corollary rather than the Confucian wisdom.
The benefits of pictures are many. They communicate a lot of information in a short period of time, and they encourage questions that further clarify the message. They also prevent misunderstandings that often arise from text.
