So you want to make an awesome infographic, but you aren’t sure where to start. Capsicum Mediaworks has 27 (Secrets) on How To Create An Awesome Viral Infographic in 2023.

This is definitely and example of “Do what I say, not what I do”.

There’s some fantastic information here! Ironically, this is NOT a great infographic. Saving a bunch of text as a JPG file does not make a good infographic. This infographic design goes against some of their own best advice! More visuals, less text. Make it big, not gigantic. Highlight/focus on the important points.

We all know that beautiful infographics are much more interesting as compared to long, plain text. It is the basic human tendency to associate more with anything that explains the same point with more visual appeal and less jargon.

Which is why infographics have become such a big deal.

The pictorial representation of the data, colorful backgrounds, short, to-the-point text, and easy to understand themes, are just some of the reasons why infographics have surpassed other digital marketing strategies in terms of popularity. And they are definitely here to stay.

So if you haven't jumped on this bandwagon yet, it's high time you do!

I really like this chart! It hits all of the data visualization design best practices for me. This was published by the NYTimes in the article: Here’s How Much Hotter Than Normal This June Has Been

Here’s what I like:

• It’s time series data, so it’s visualized as a line chart

• Year-over-year data is easy to compare as overlapping lines for the same Jan-Dec time period

• No chart legend! The lines are labeled directly within your field of view in the chart

• Using the pre attentive attribute of color, 2023 is highlighted in orange and the rest are gray lines

• The chosen orange color isn’t red or green so there isn’t any implication of good or bad

• The 2022 line is a darker shade of gray, so it’s also distinguishable, but not the focus

• The x-axis labels are only every other month to minimize the text on the page

• The is one example of when a non-zero baseline is appropriate so you can see the details

Most people may be familiar with cognitive behavioral therapy (CBT) and other common types of psychotherapy, but art therapy remains somewhat of a mystery to the general public. Not incorporating it into a treatment plan could be a huge missed opportunity for veterans who’ve experienced trauma and other patients in need of mental health support. “Art is a means of therapy and a way to heal,” says Marine Corps veteran Jerry Rael. “It helps me escape some of the things that I went through during my time in service.”  Art can also be therapeutic for families who have lost a loved one in battle, as seen in Make Peace or Die: Honor the Fallen. In the film, Marine Anthony Marquez carves battlefield crosses out of wood for each lost service member and then hand-delivers them to Gold Star families, including a grieving mother who had attempted suicide.

Posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) among active-duty service members and veterans impacts not only individuals experiencing PTSD, but also their spouses and families. Left untreated, PTSD is typically chronic and very impairing. However, for individuals experiencing PTSD, one weekend retreat with their partner can support recovery while simultaneously improving their romantic relationships, according to a pilot study led by Steffany Fredman, associate professor of human development and family studies and associate professor of psychology at Penn State.

New research data offers much-needed hope for veterans wrestling with combat-associated posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD). The study explores the use of hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBOT) to address symptoms that persist despite standard treatments.
