The Image Language Translator Turns Words into Pictures
It is said that a picture is worth a thousand words. On The Image Language, it's worth exactly one word. Type a few words into the text box, and the system will match each one with an image pulled from Google to form a pictograph. The site promises that "the results will always be surprising, sometimes shocking and often stupid."

It works for languages other than English — even those with different character sets. The results can be saved to a portfolio or shared on Facebook.
The site’s founders, Argentinean copywriter Santiago Luna Lupo and Brazilian art director Mihail Aleksandrov, had worked together at La Comunidad advertising agency before they decided to collaborate on a project to “explore the possibilities of two things: words and images.”
