Is there a term that is specifically intended for the images that are used to provide non-verbal instruction? I'd think it would be something like 'Pictograph' or something like that. For example the little booklets in airplanes that explain how to get off of the plane. They use no words but are pretty clear. Is there perhaps a website or tool that allows generic images so that I could make something like that? That would be useful, or even funny.

There is a "term," but it doesn't have a word - it's only sign language.

OK, so is there a tool, or a website that allows one to create generic pictograms? It would be really useful if I could just drag and drop some little people, with some flames, maybe some duct-tape, plastic sheeting etc.

Are you trying to leave an evidence trail on purpose?
