Lightning fast read meant to make you think...

10 Mistakes People Make Creating Infographics (plus 1 bonus):

1. Make text, graphs, etc, too small to read.
2. Don't allow for a click to enlarge.
3. Forget to study other infographics for ideas.
4. Overlook citing their sources.
5. Choose colors that clash (versus enhance).
6. Don't offer embed code.
7. Allow perfectionism to prevent publishing.
8. Forget it's a great option for recycling blog posts.
9. Don't spend the time it takes. (It will show.)
10. Neglect the KISS approach (keep it simple silly).

BONUS: Save as jpg file instead of png. (Latter doesn't lose resolution.)
