Experiment — can the image itself carry the signal?

Twenty flyers, twenty homes

The last set all looked alike because it was one template ten times. This is the opposite: twenty different real Paonia listings, and each home's actual signal drives the whole image — the composition, the medium, the mood — not text on a shared backdrop. A foreclosure reads cold; a markup becomes a chart; a no-water cabin is cracked dry earth. Tap any for full size.
