Where did the inspiration for Text Pics come from?
Have you ever sat down in a restaurant in a foreign country, and then realised the menu doesnt have any pictures and you have no idea what to order? Well, it happened to me once in China! Famished, I had no choice but to order at random. 10 minutes later I was presented with a massive bowl of bok choy. Not exactly what I was hoping for. (sigh!) If I had Text Pics, it would have been a piece of cake to understand the menu with pictures!
