Best resource for "putting it all together" visually....the OT events.....?

I'm still struggling with putting the events of the OT into a Chronology...the events are there....but they are hanging out in space, unrelated to each other....
What would you suggest for getting the chronology of events in my mind VISUALLY....I love timelines and charts rather than huge blocks of text.

There are all kinds of charts and timelines available in Logos, but other people's charts don't always stick in our minds. So I'd recommend something that an OT professor at my seminary used as a class assignment: So make your own graphical/visual representation of the events in the OT. Use your creativity and do it however you like that will help you to visualize it. By working on that project you will come to know the details intimately. He assigned it for just the book of Exodus, but you could do it for the whole OT. And do it as if you were going to be teaching the material. There's no better way to learn something than to prepare to teach it.
Here's an example of someone who has made his own graphical aids to use for ministry: http://visualunit.wordpress.com/
Also, try this resource, though it's still just bits and pieces not a whole huge sweeping overview: http://www.logos.com/product/1226/visual-survey-of-the-bible

Get Logos to provide us with the same ability to make timelines as we had in L3. There are even two such requests on uservoice.
