I couldn't stop there... I "fixed" the original ComScore chart by making the width proportional to the total market size per year. This is the legitimately apples-to-apples comparison of the market share over the years. Enjoy...

This is excellent, how on earth did you manage it?

Thanks! Glad you like it!

I already had the data from the first area chart, so I built a line graph on the same timeline that just had market size as a % of 2012. Imported that as a mask in Photoshop and squished everything down to match.

And because I seem to be incapable of explaining without images, here ya go: http://exceltactics.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/09/HowItWasD...

Huh! That's awesome. I had no idea Photoshop masks could be used to distort images in that way. Good job!
