Sandy,

I suspect you can't really tell if it's worked until you "publish". When I look at my timeline, the alt text for images is exactly the same as what people put as text. The value of having the same text twice is another issue! I couldn't find the information you were talking about on the page you gave, but I would suggest that that is the best place to ask.
