I am running WordPress 2.2.2. In order to pass the XHTML 1.0 Validation (http://validator.w3.org/), any time I insert an image in a post, I must manually at the ‘alt’ attribute. e.g. <img src=”http://www.topxml.com/images/topxml_site.gif” alt=”Go the front-page of TopXML.com”></img>
Why does WordPress ‘Insert/Edit Image’ dialog box not enforce this if it is required to be compliant? There is not even an optional box for it… :-(

Except those of us who used to work for Starbucks. We’ve got our caffeine mainlined. Seriously, it took me more than two years to get through all the coffee in my freezer after they fired my ass.

And OT why does it take like forever for new avatars to show? :)

No idea. WP.com itself doesn’t know why they appear first in the forums and later elsewhere. It came as a surprise to them when TT told them.

I see the No Kubrick one with the name “root” in that thread. Weirdness.

OT: I sure wish the My Comments thread would exclude our own blogs from the search. I want to find something I commented on two days ago. If I want to know what I said on my own blog, I can find it easily enough. Grrrr.

avatars? No idea – barry or demetrius for that one.

Coffee? Maybe, but Red Bull works for me daily. Current intake ~2L

My Comments – I’ll pass that on.

Well I am seeing my spiffy new *Support Turkey* avatar. When it shows I hope we can encourage everybody to use it. I copied your art work. Neat:)

Not MY artwork. I’m just the muse, not the painter, baby!

2l of redbull? Isn’t that a fatal dose? Mark, we can’t lose you; we’d be left alone with all the people who’d deleted their HOME pages!!!
