VMs: ...And an idea for the labels

[Elmar Vogt <elvogt@xxxxxxxxxxx>]

Dear all,

One idea for the labels:

In the "Sachsenspiegel", a German high-medieval lawbook, Illustrations 
accompany the text of the regulations and laws. Pictures and text are 
separated and linked by highlighted letters which appear in the picture and 
in the relevant text section.

Ie, if one law started with "If any idiot should call you up after ten 
during the week...", the capital "I" at the beginning might be highlighted, 
and a corresponding "I" would be drawn above the image depicting the 
crime/action/whatever. But the "I" would _not_ be the name of the law, nor 
would it bear any direct meaning related to the image.

Just a thought. Perhaps the labels are not names, but refer to text passages 
which describe the images?

Cheers,

	Elmar
