As a blind web site designer who has his alt tag reading protion of his
screen reading software. I would say their should be both images and a text
description. I have come across many fully sighted (20/20 Vision( persons
that have difficulty with even the simplest images. I like to provide a link
to a page with the image and a full text version. And how about dialup
users. Many graphic images can slow a dialup user's access signifcantlly.
