Images, I think. Or... words (voice in head). Definitely not images of words. Thanks for the llama fact: The More You Know.
Do you think in words or images?

It depends on what I'm thinking about. If I'm thinking about, say, needing to go to the grocery store I think in words. If it's any sort of creative thinking, it's in images. That's why I'm better at plotting scenes for visual mediums like movies than writing scenes in stories.

I think more in images.

Almost exclusively words. I have a terrible time visually things. I hate things like visualizing during meditation, I just can't think in images.
11/15/2012
not exactly images but certainly nothing so clear as words
11/15/2012
Never really thought about it
11/15/2012
I do an equal mix

Pictures, it helps me understand better if I'm trying to figure something out.

I don't really know. I do mental image a bit...but I think it depends on the case.

It's kind of both, but more images. Like, if I'm making a list of all the things I need to do, I visual a written list of things I need to do, and then I remember what each thing previously looked like, so I know -exactly- where I need to start first.

I think almost completely in words only. Images are rare and kind of blurry at best.

I think in images

I feel weird because I don't think that I really do either :/

I think in words so much more than images. I do, however, think in a variety of voices. Mostly television characters from my past and old friends I no longer see often.

Both but it can lean one way or the other depending on what I'm thinking about.

Interesting question. It depends, I might be more visual but words play a role as well.
11/17/2012
images

I think I do a bit of both, but images more than words...

strange, i never really thought about it. but def words, unless i am trying to visualize something for creative visualization, or remembering something, or fantasizing. as far as random thoughts, all words. to the point it's annoying sometimes
01/28/2013
Both... I am slightly OCD so when I am thinking and typing at the same time I spell out what I am writing in my head then after that I start spelling out everything I think lol. I am weird

Equal mix I'd say. But I have a photographic memory too.

Trees.

Images. Interesting topic.
01/29/2013
Both.

I have sort of one sided directed conversations with myself when I'm thinking really hard, so I guess usually words.
