Bad/Good Infographic

Information graphics or infographics are graphic visual representations of information, data or knowledge created with the intention of presenting complex information quickly and clearly.

For example, the image on the left makes it quite clear that the data is suggesting that there are more females than males.
Infographics often start with an intriguing headline such as ‘How Much Planet Earth is Worth in Cash?’ Then, in just the necessary amount of steps using facts and image, they proceed to answer the question posed in the headline.


Samples:


My opinion:

Bad info graphic because:
-too simple
-lack of pictures
-lack of info
-unreasonable use of topic

But color stands out.



Good info graphic because:
- easy to understand 
-Grab view's attendtion
-balance between amount of info and pictures
-simple and organized
