A Picture is Worth a Conversation
Posted by bud_caddell on May 08, 2008
Why say it, when you can show it?
I love the direction of this blog, but sheesh, I think it could use a photo or two. I’ll get us started with a few new favorites of mine.
1) Show it, don’t brand-ver-marke-licit it.

2) What we sometimes foolishly assume when we design for a digital experience.

3) Never forget the power of the unexpected.

Ok, these were sorta silly, but I think it conveyed the power of images to progress or spark a conversation-the right images can sway someone. Think about it next time you flip through a stock photo catalog.
