killing two birds with one stone:

1) >How change font or size of text for gtk_label_new("TEXT")???
2) >* Different colors would serve same purpose.

GtkWidget *label = gtk_label_new ("foo");
gtk_widget_set_name (label, "SuperlativeLabel");

GtkWidget *slider = gtk_hslider_new (....);
gtk_widget_set_name (slider, "SuperlativeSlider");

then see Havoc's FAQ on colors:

put them in a frame in a box having called
gtk_container_set_spacing() on the box.

>* Sliders DO NOT have arrows on each side like
