    Does this widget allow you to add a title to the image? As it is, when you link the image with the widget, the Alt text shows up when you hover over the image. There is no way to add a hover title for the link.

    Caryn, the widget does allow you to add header text to the image. The header text will be read by a screen reader as text, not an mage, thus there is no hover text for this. The ALT Text would also then be read by the screen reader. ALT text is used to provide users with a text equivalent of images. These two should be different. By accessibility standards, you should not have redundancies in items that will be picked up by a screen reader.
