The ALT attributes in the image/link tabs at the very top right hand corner say things like "fourms-off" and "home-off"..

I have a feeling it has to do with the rollover images at the top of the RuneWeb index page. When you're not bothering them, they have the image of 'element-off'. If you're hovering over them, they have the image of 'element-on', and display what that element is on the left side.

Nothing to worry about, but don't take my word for it exactly. Firenimmo or Catatifish should be able to clear it up.

Is this really an issue?

If you're saying their alt text should be more relevant, then okay i'll change that when I don't have any work on. If you meant something else then you'll have to elaborate.

If you will hover over it you will see. I am a web designer, and everyone can look at the source code for any web page very easily. The ALT attribute is designed for those who display webpages with no picture or for a simple hover-over text. Right now it says something like "forums-off" when you hover over one of the links. I just thought it might be helpful that you know it. It looks bad, you can take them out or edit them, or leave them the way they were. I just figured I would bring something up.
