Back on the image note..... Why alt? it doesn't have to be alt, a background image should be suitable. Break up a title by / wrap each section in a span and place proper padding on them -- ;) if you want to do something real nice, turn everything but the last portion into a link -- and replace every / by a span containing / with display: none; and followed by an empty span with a background image.
