The object of our affection? Jessica Ennis, UK's heptathlon gold medal winner. Before each Olympic games, UK chooses someone to be 'the face of the Olympics'. Their picture becomes a tangible shorthand that sums up our Olympic team and hopes. Picture choice is vital, both online and offline. http://internetevangelismday.com/blog/archives/4997 2011-08-15T12:42:04-05:00 Since the Internet has become the source of information and transferred our location of knowledge from paper to digital formats, the infographic has become a form of communication that combines image and word to create a specific way to convey and synthesize knowledge. http://internetevangelismday.com/word-pictures.php 2010-08-07T18:28:27-05:00 Every abstract concept must be turned into picture language if we are to understand it.

She couldn't laugh at it when she was that person, but she sure could as a senior, because that photo represented who she was then, not now.

It’s called “Jesus in the snow.” There was a piece of paper taped on the back side of the picture that told the story of how the picture came about. http://jestkidding.com/kids-corner/picture-of-the-devil/ 2007-09-21T20:42:06-05:00 Have you ever wondered what the devil looks like?
