Smoothgallery validation errors - adding alt tag

    I’m using smoothgallery on the homepage of my site and am trying to pass validation. I’m getting some errors on my homepage because the images that smoothgallery is loading do not have alt tags.

    Does anyone know what I need to edit to add them in? It’d be nice if there was a input in the image manager but there’s not. Here’s my snippet call.

    [!MaxiGallery? &display=`embedded` &embedtype=`smoothgallery` &max_pic_size=`607` &smoothgallery_showArrows=`false` &smoothgallery_embedLinks=`false` &smoothgallery_showCarousel=`false` &smoothgallery_timed=`true` &smoothgallery_delay=`6000` &smoothgallery_height=`219` &smoothgallery_width=`607` &smoothgallery_slideInfoZoneOpacity=`0.9` !]


    the page i’m talking about is http://www.ellbiedesign.com

      Do a custom galleryPictureTpl to MaxiGallery based on the original one. The smoothgallery part is at the top of the template, add the alt attributes there.
