Simplified (I hope...)

Picture a sunflower on display in the center of a plate - the yellow part equals the pineapple top. All the petals have been removed but for four equally spaced petals.

~~~~~~~~~

Cut the top off the pineapple and put in center of large plate. (Equivalent to the yellow part of the sunflower)

Quarter the remaining pineaple top to bottom. (Equal to the four petals left on the sunflower)

Carve the meat in a solid chunk out of each quarter's outer skin and return the whole chunk to the skin. Slice across the chunk in the skin (but not through the skin) into 8-12 pineapple slices.

Place the skins with all the chunks on the serving tray so that it looks like a rather anemic sunflower.

Put additional fruits between the four quarters and add toothpicks to the pineapple chunks.

Don't know if there's a picture or not but you could check the Dole Pineapple website. It's really so easy that it probably sounds way more complicated than it is.
