Many thanks for that - I've understood it now :)

I agree with your rule of thumb "if something is best said in text, say it
in text only", I think it maybe would not apply here as some of the artwork
is very rich and certainly not possible to replicated in styled text. Being
an Arts site we would not compromise the artwork. Hence the use of an alt
text.

I'll be able to post a URL soon, unfortunately the site is being prepared so
is not live yet. The old site is available at www.pumphouse.info but has few
of the accessibility features we are building into the new site.

Thanks again for your assistance.

Malcolm
