Motivating end users to read the user manual

[Sharon Burton]

Visual appeal with well used colors will be effective if the user base
includes lots of visual learners. I suspect that audience does, but all our
ideas about what those users need are non-relevant. 

Ask the users what they need. If they are visual learners, then well crafted
visuals will help.

Hi Cal,

When making diagrams and inserting pictures, I would suggest using some
colors. Colors definitely add to the visual appeal. A colorful manual
is definitely going to catch the user attention. What say?
