    Thanks for all the great ideas! Sometimes you feel like you’re stuck in a rut with charts. I particularly liked the chart with images, although it could take a bit longer to make if you have to collect your colleague’s pics. Oh well, I’ll keep my eyes peeled for an opportunity to put it into use!
