Tagging Gone Crazy: Logos Media Search

I was enjoying my Verbum Sacred Art Collection (it's quite good; you can zoom in on the imagery, which is not quite as good as Accordance).

So, I decided to see what else Logos had.  I used the Search > Media and a 'Jesus' argument (below). That's when I found pages and pages of Steve Green's jpgs, all tagged (I guess) with 'Jesus'??  Mixed in are every single 'people' icons ... all 'Jesus' too, I assume.  Pages ... and pages ... and pages.

I'm guessing someone wrote a macro, and 'let fly'.  Didn't check to see what happened next.

What is so interesting, is they have a 'Sheet Music' tag, but only assigned to the Logos Hymnal ... sorry Steve Green! You get jpgs only!

    The ones from Biblical People Diagrams are intrusive enough, but person:Jesus will reduce the "Jesus" tagged media. Or you can Remove the book resource!

    EDIT:  you can right-click All Media to pick the types you want  e.g. exclude line drawings.

    It's an interesting problem.  Someone (computer?) went thru and tagged the titles for sermon topics, but the book is no longer available.  Most of the bad-boy jpgs are in the appendices.  And selecting to save the MIDIs crashes Verbum.  I notice the 2 Logos hymnals successfully play their MIDIs.

    It's (Logosian) uniqueness is the wide range of hymns covered.  I gave up counting, but at least a 100 hymns start with 'Come' ... a sure-fire 'invitation song' in restoration churches.  

    It shows all the different variations of a hymn and by who.  A classic from Kentucky Harmony and Ananias Davisson, words by Charles Wesley, and early shape-note singing:

         IDUMEA

    And am I born to die?

    To lay this body down?

    And must my trembling spirit fly

    Into a world unknown—

    A land of deepest shade,

    Unpierced by human thought,

    The dreary regions of the dead,

    Where all things are forgot?
