Tips, tricks and resources to make your own gorgeous infographics. Infographics (or Information Graphics) are graphic visual representations of data or information, presented in a way to make it easier to consume information. Infographics gained popularity in the mid-2000′s with the advent of sites like Digg and Reddit, and have quickly become one of the most popular methods to display researched data. There are three main types of infographics – where data is presented in a timeline, where statistical data is presented in graphs or with icons, or where data is presented on a map.
In order to create an infographic which will be widely shared, think about your typography, colours, and layout. Make it easy for people to understand the information that’s being provided. Sometimes it’s best to keep things simple. Sometimes you don’t need anything more than an elaborate concentric pie chart or cool typography to create a visually interesting infographic. Infographics are among the most popular modern methods of sharing information with an audience. Welcome to the vtf type foundry website. PXtoEM.com: PX to EM conversion made simple. WhatTheFont!
