Guilty. Flat out guilty. Not necessarily repentant. 

Pictures get high readership. A few well-chosen words in the pic do too. 

Plus with the high number of generic pix slapped onto pages as content-free 
phony eye candy, words in photos show a little thought. A little 
personalization. 

I'd never put a key piece of word content ONLY in a pic. In fact, I guess I use 
them as a mild form of constructive redundancy, or as teasers to encourage the 
old art of reading the text.
