Thanks Susan,

Good eye! You did indeed find its number one failing: The unseen mystery 
links with CSS on while images are off. I don't really know how to address 
this and am open to suggestions. Goodness knows I've tried to come up with a 
solution (aside from offering an accessible alternative -- trying to save 
that if nothing else can be found).

Regarding filling those alt attributes in the embedded image I didn't find 
they added any value since the text that would be in those would be 
redundant... it's in the accompanying text. I'd put it in in a heartbeat if 
it solved that other issue, but unfortunately while CSS is on, the alt text 
and embedded images reside outside the viewing port so it doesn't really 
help.

Great job finding that. It shows you put it through its paces for which I am 
very grateful. I can only fill in the gaps I become aware of.

Mike

It's good on all browsers I tested it on.  It's valid code and meets
accessibility requirements (WAI) (with a caveat) and displays well with css
off

That said, it cheats with the main image in the background so there are no
alt tags on it so it's not really totally accessible.  I did see that the
small images had alt text field, left empty...
