Challenge: #04 - Word Clouds
Challenge Deadline: May 10th, 11:59 PST
Challenge Details: A word cloud is a graphical representation of an idea, with words of various colour and size floating around. Wordle is a java-based engine for making them. Your task is to use wordle (or a graphics program of your choice, if that works better for you) to make a word cloud around a character, an idea from "Song of Ice and Fire", a house...something you can describe and play with.

You must have at least seven words, you can have many many more. If you toy with the program a bit you can make really neat things.



the Starks' dire wolves:



the great houses of Westeros:



one with a ton of words (oops, wrong fandom, I'm just using it to show what LOTS of words looks like)



Hint:

The more times you use a word, the bigger it is in comparison to the others. In the second example, I used 'Westeros" three times to make it bigger, and each of the house names once. In the third example I ran a whole 50,000 word fanfic.

Challenge Points: You may create two for 10 points each. Please reply to your team's thread below. Have fun!
