RE: ALT text revisited

Liamm,

Thanks for that proposal on ALT text.   I was looking for something that
collected in one place recommendations for  ALT, TITLE, and LONGDESC.

Suppose  we have a web site for a hypothetical business "Archimedes
Plumbing", and the banner contains the text "Archimedes Plumbing" and
shows Archimedes, a white haired 60-ish Greek gentleman, sitting in a
sudsy bathtub, wielding a pipe wrench above his head.   His boney
kneecaps just break the surface of the suds.  The color scheme is based
on cool blue.  There's a slogan at the bottom of the banner, "Your best
plumbing value".  

For this banner, what shall we recommend in this example for:

  ALT?

  TITLE?

  LONGDESC?
