The red and they gray colors aren't the brightest colors, but they still made me want to look at it. I loved the graphics that they used. My favorite graphic was the double helix structure because it helped the graphic flow. Overall it had a really nice flow to it and it was easy to read. I didn't confuse me like the infographics in the past that I have made. I liked the different sizes and colors of font. This infographic also has really interesting statistics.

=Nicole DNA Infographic= http://www.photosfan.com/images/human-genome-project1.jpg

The colors of this Infographic really stood out when I saw it. I like that it is very bright. I think that this is a very simple and doesn't have too much or too less information to it. I like how the pictures are somewhat of a 3D and stand out. The Infographic really explains a lot about DNA to help me. The best part about this DNA is the long strand going across the page. It might be too long in some of the parts, but if you read it, it really makes sense.

=Elissa Holiday Sales Infographic= [] []

I thought that this infographic gave a lot of information, but it didn't use a lot of words. At the top, the blue and tan colors seemed bland, but as you glance down, they get brighter, so that makes you want to look further. I like how they used color-coordinated bars to show percentages, and Christmas bulbs to identify each holiday season. I also like how they showed each region by color located on the map. At the bottom, I really like the graphics that show the different industries. One thing I think could be better on this infographic is the color of the titles and descriptions separating each section. The muted blue color isn't eye-catching, because it blends into the background. I also think that the background itself is a bland color.

=Rachel S. Weight Loss Infographic= Source: http://blackgirlsguidetoweightloss.com/uncategorized/infographic-the-childhood-obesity-epidemic/ I picked this infographic because I thought the topic was really interesting. This immediately caught my eye because of all the pictures on it! The information kept my attention the whole way through as it's facts were really good and could interest anyone. They way the spaced everything out and organized this information was great. I think they could have improved this infographic by comparing actually bodies to show weight increase. I still think this infographic is excellent!

=Andy Oil Consumption Infographic=

I chose this infographic because the facts that are on it are mind boggling and it is visually appealing. The pictures that go along with it represent everything so clearly. The facts on it just goes to show that our country uses a lot more oil than it really needs too. It brought up good points about how inefficient the United States truly is. This infographic has charts and statistics that are easy to follow and read. One thing I think they should do is put the population beside the country to show that a place like China has way more people and is still consuming less oil than the US each day.

=Sarah H App Store Infograph= http://cdn.mashable.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/12/appstore-infographic.png

I chose to do this infograph because I thought the information it contained was very interesting. The infograph shows how much things have changed over the years. An example of that is now you can download a book app rather than visiting the library. Another reason I chose this infograph is because it contained many bright colors. All these colors made the infographic eye catching and the colors draw you in. Also the fact that the infograph contains a lot of charts and graphs this makes it more visually pleasing. Lastly, it doesn't contain too many words which makes the infograph less boring. =Kaston M Education Infograph= Source: http://www.infographicsshowcase.com/education-by-the-numbers-infographic/ I picked to write about this image because it relates to my education. It is very interesting to learn about this subject because it pertains to my life as a young adult. It shows facts and statistics about different subjects dealing with education. This image was eye catching and easy to understand. It is a little wordy in certain sections but the subject was appealing.

http://knicksnow.com/posts/528 i picked this infographic because it is very interesting and it tracks the career of lately blown up jeremy lin. it also shows how much he has changed the team lately.

=dakota thomas yankees infographic=



I picked this because I like the New York yankees and it has them in it. I also love baseball. It has a lot of colors that appeal to the eye. But, there is a lot of reading in the first part of it, which makes it less interesting. It does have a lot of food information about teams, pennants they won, and world series they have won. It is put together well and is organized nicely. http://www.infographicsshowcase.com/new-york-yankees-dominance-in-baseball-infographic/ =Ala S. Free Your Feet Infographic= http://www.xraytechnicianschools.net/free-your-feet/ I choose this infographic because it is about running with bare feet or shoes and running is my hobby so it interests me. One thing I like about this inforgraph is that it has a lot of icons that draw the eye's attention. A few things that I don't like about this infograph is that the time line is kind of confusing and hard to follow and that the font of the text can also be hard to read. By past experiences with running and injuries, I've learned that the way you step, impacts the type of shoes you need. Therefore, the way this infographic talks about shoes, it makes it sound like all shoes mess your legs up, when really all you need is shoes that support you specifically.

=Ryan Sloniger's Basketball Infographic=

http://www.infographicsarchive.com/sport/u-s-basketball-participation-in-ncaa-r-tournaments/

I chose this infographic because it caught my eye with all the colors and all the numbers got me interested. It isn't very wordy, so all the statistics are interesting to read. I was very interested and surprised to see how the boys and girls amount that play division 1 basketball is the same. This had a lot of good information about mens and womens basketball.

=Austin Milton Email Infographic= http://www.emaildesignreview.com/email-industry-insight/cool-infographic-the-history-and-evolution-of-email-438/

I chose this infographic because it shows a kind of fun fact, and reading it caught my attention, although the colors are not "eye grabbing" the facts are, and it makes you want to keep reading it, Its not very wordy and it doesn't contain that is irrelevant to the infographic. I also find it very interesting that companies spend that much money on emails that people dont read, and also that were the biggest spam producer in the world here in the USA!

=Brandon Blose Kobe/Jordan Inforgraphic=

I chose this infographic because it is about my two favorite basketball players. It was interesting to see the comparison between Michael Jordan and Kobe Bryant. The colors really are not eye catching, but the information is interesting to me. It is not to wordy, but it gets straight to the point and explains what each player did. The most interesting thing to me is when Kobe Bryant scores 81 points in a single game!

=C.J Seitz/ food infographic= I picked this infographic because it looks really interesting and made me want to read it. It may look like it is only about food but it is about a lot more than that. It talks about the nation and its economy. I also like the look they gave the infographic it looks like a older style sheet of paper you would fine back in the day hanging on a wall. You should look at it as well it is very interesting and a really creative idea for an infographic.



i picked this infographic because it traces the amazing story of recently blown up jeremy lin. and the colors pop drawing your eyes to certain parts of the infographic. this infographic is also very well done =Morgan McFarland Social Networking Infograph:= Source- http://www.saltywaffle.com/friday-infographic-the-new-marketing-trifecta/ I thought this infograph was unique and caught my attention. There was a lot of visual appeal with the colors and the images and charts. It cleary shows the information about facebook and other websites used a lot. It shows how these sites connect with email, social media, and smart phones. I like this infograph a lot because it was interesting to me and really caught my attention.
