Picture names

hello,
I have created a site with Xara Web Designer 7 Premium.
All pictures on this site resaved a number, that's fine but for the search engines would it be good if they just have a name. How can I accomplish this?

Using the Name dialogue [click on the yellow luggage label button on the info bar] enter

filename="imagenameyourequire"

:)

Two ways :)

Attachment 89001

or right-click ...

In this way the picture will get an 'alt" name, but the image keeps the number (1.jpg). The problem with this is that the "alt"name is not found in a search command, I tried this extensively

Not at all.
The method described above will name the image on export to the name you define in the syntax.

Example:

In the names dialogue if you choose to enter: filename="Toyota-Sprinter" the photo will be exported as Toyota-Sprinter.jpg

Note that vector shapes and drawings or photographs with added attributes such as a drop shadow, will be exported as .png
You can override this in the image tab of Web Properties.

this works, thanks for this solution=D>

Actually, if you want to put alt text onto your images you do the following : right click image, a menu will open, choose Web Properties, choose Images and then write your SE friendly description in the Image Caption (Alt Text) section. You can also just click on the LINK image (looks like a chain) and it will also open the web properties box, then just choose Images etc. When you publish the site, if you right click on the image it will come up with the alt text, and this is the text that the google spiders will find when crawling your site.
