How often did you succeed in fascinating other people about beautiful things with words that much that they could not stop thinking about it, that they even would do almost anything to see it with their own eyes?

A charismatic talker may succeed now and then to fascinate auditors that much, that they are convinced about a topic.

How about convincing someone by means of written words?

Are you able to describe things good enough, that you convince every reader about something?

Normally we are able to remember read words easier than heard words, but how do we get someone‘s attention to read our text in spite of the permanently increasing flood of information.

We remember pictures best. Even a very comprehensive and perfect description is not able to describe impressions which a picture is able to convey in seconds. Pictures are even able to convey an impression by just skimming a website, and chances are good to catch someone‘s attention, who normally would not realize the importance of an article, because he just skimmed some words.

Image List

Instead of text in the list, PinPoint also offers the alternative to integrate images as selection criterion. By clicking an image it automatically magnifies to its original size. A slide-show starts, if the author saved more than one image to a location. By clicking the location markers or the plus symbols

the small information window, opens. By clicking onto the target symbol

(approach-zoom) the map directly shows the vicinity of a location.

Applications

The image list is an ideal solution for locations, which are alternatively selected because of their appearance. Our architecture example emphasizes the optical appearance of reference projects.

Other application would include tourism which could convince guests to visit by listing beautiful spots in the region.
