Two comments - 

Remember that not everyone has the same command of English, so the written 
description may not be as clear to one person as to another

"A picture is worth a thousand words".  I've seen video demonstrations like 
this and instantly understood something about which the written description 
left me utterly confused.

In most cases I prefer words, but where new concepts are involved there's a 
lot to be said for pictures.
