    If you hover your mouse over the images (at least in my browser, chrome) it will pop-up with what they are, the hammer gives "Site Builder". Edit - Oops, I started to reply before his response was there, but was distracted by work (how dare they!?). Oh well, like he said, lol.

    Yea, I've tried that, but for some reason nothing pops-up in my Browser (Firefox 3). Thanks for the tip though. Regards, Fábio

      In that case, you can probably (don't have Firefox, so I can't verify) right-click the file and go to properties to see the alt-text, or view the page source and find the <img src=... alt=, or just try to save the image (in this case) and the image name would have told you. :-D

        When someone is so focused on something, he cannot see what is in front of him, despite how shiny it is! Thanks for the tip. Regards, Fábio

          What did I give you, four ways of getting the answer? That's just how my mind works. Between development and technical support, it's easy to put yourself into the mindset of finding alternative options to arrive at the intended goals. So for the intended goal of determining what the hammer icon means you have 1) alt text pop-up, 2) picture properties offering the alt text (I think some browsers give it there), 3) picture name when you try to save the picture, 4) the alt text in the image tag if you view the page source (a little much for something so unimportant in this case, but if you really wanted to know, it'd work as a last resort). You just have to look for the options.

            Yeah, I looked everywhere on CP site, and didn't think of these... I guess it was like this because I'm not used rely on this very often. Regards, Fábio

              It's short, but I can't help thinking Jakob Nielson on Twitter[^] is like asking Martha Stewart to comment on the decor of a typical College dorm. It's just all bad.

              The key work here is TWITter. There seem to be a lot of twits that don't have anything better to do.

              Why is common sense not common? Never argue with an idiot. They will drag you down to their level where they are an expert.
