Create Word Art with Wordle
Submitted by innowen on Mon, 2008-06-23 09:44.
I was reading Neil Gaiman's blog today and came across this interesting link. Someone had taken some of his prose (the infamous "I Believe" passage from American Gods) and rendered it in Wordle.
It's a word-art site where you feed it passages of text and it spits it out in a mind map sort of visual-word poetry/art. You can create your own account, upload all sorts of interesting passages, see how the site creates renders of what you add and share it with others.
I'm making all sorts of word art with it to use as covers for my journals, greeting card covers and just fun background image art.


Fun!
Great find innowen! This could really make some interesting covers. Thanks for the link!
Really really neat!
Thanks, innowen, that is really fun! I can see using it to make some posters for my classroom.
Cool Use
I just heard of woodle recently via the ESV Blog. T'would be a nifty use to make an attractive planner.
Thanks!

I took the text from A Beginner's Guide to Making a D*I*Y Planner and did this

I think that should somehow be incorporated in our site here....... Could that be put in the image gallery? It would make a great hipster cover!! :) Nice job Ygor!
in the image gallery
yeah, i can put this in the image gallery. (edited to add, well, i'd PUT it there but now the image doesn't display. i guess they have time sensitive wordles?)
