Pixels are the new pies
 

I just saw this on a blog and i wonder if anybody knows how to make
these kind of charts in Excel. They are square charts that represent
the percentage of something by how much of the square is represented by
a color. How can I do this in Excel 2007?
thanks

Just do it in the spreadsheet with cell borders and shading.
Ten by ten seems to be optimal.

this kind of charts are only possible in Excel 2007 only (i think)

For what it's worth, I find these charts as unwieldy as pie charts, and I
don't use either type.

However, some people do like them. Chris at JuiceAnalytics has some
explanations he
