In the Image Resource Info … there is no option for “ALT” Elements simply takes your Caption and makes that your Alt tag This is beginning to be a problem for me as … for example I want a … succinct caption that says “Chevet de Notre Dame, 1980” … … but I want to give Google a good descriptive Alt tag that reads “Chevet de Notre Dame, 1980, an oil painting by artist Peter Yates (1920-1982)” As you can see, my captions get too long, visually ugly and repeat text (as the author is included below) In summary - I’m suggesting that there’s an argument for an ALT tag that’s distinct from the Image Caption (you might also get less people like me asking … “where does the ALT tag go ?”) ![image](https://europe1.discourse-cdn.com/flex005/uploads/realmacsoftware1/original/3X/1/5/15c2e11bcf086f7d6778e5e054dff30ddf7aa4c2.jpeg)
