Re: alt text in gmail

Hi,

I done it a few years ago for the email signature and this was through
editing the alt attribute in a picture editing programme and then uploading
the image.

As this was a while ago I cannot remember the programme and I do not know
how this would work in the body of a message, but it can be done.

Kind regards,
Miles
