y,

I think you under-rate the ability we have to discover the sources of
these
images. In many cases, people who played in the games would be around.
In
others, some simple examination of the four or five available games of a
given scale over any given ECC would tell us what the candidates were
and
might even illuminate which one they belong to.

You could control the text block, I would imagine, if you set aside a
portion of the image and inserted the text in a standard box there. If
you
aren't a photoshop whiz, I know piles of folks who are (I work at a
company
that has video game aspirations and lots of computer art types).

I'm not saying a huge text block - font does not have to be huge and you
could set it to a max of 25 or 30 words. Pick some non-offensive
shape/style
and it would make a good ID for the photo.

The one thing I think you need to find a photo of for one of these is
Jon
Davis' Renleg game where he had 'broken crust with magma rivers' as his
board. It was impressive.
