Image in template needs alternative text
The current version of the template enables you to add a project logo, but not to add Alternative text for images. For example image=USEM_eu_project_logo.png|alt=USEM logo| does not generate an alt attribute with "USEM logo". The alt attribute is always empty. Replacing image=USEM_eu_project_logo.png| with does not work. Can anyone modify the template or suggest an alternative approach? Since the image is in a link, an empty alt attribute is not acceptable because it results in empty link text for those who cannot see images or have images turned off. (The code examples are from the article USEM, but articles like Access-eGov, KnowARC, RINGrid and Stasis (EU project) are also affected.) --ChristopheS (talk) 11:02, 9 July 2009 (UTC)
 * I've allowed for alt-text with "imagealt" parameter . I wrote the alt text for testing purposes, please tweak as desired - I am not experienced at writing alt text. –xenotalk 02:24, 24 July 2009 (UTC)
