22 Re: facing figures

@Ben Spaulding: Interesting design point regarding left-facing versus right-facing images, which seem thoroughly reasonable. Moreover, where you said “_With figures, however, there is one piece of markup I add that is presentational_� I would argue that your markup is not presentational at all. You are adding data about the nature of the image, and the class attribute is the most appropriate place for such metadata.

However, your chosen class name ‘alt’ doesn’t make this metadata clear; I would call the class ‘right-facing’ instead, unless the neutrality of the class name proves critical in simplifying the handling of both left-to-right and right-to-left scripts.

26 No )))

Enough people have told me that to the point that I don’t even care anymore. I don’t agree with them and I view them as people who are just trying to pick up as many girls as they can, so it’s an ‘in one ear, out the other’ kind of thing. I don’t take it seriously, but I probably would say thank you or some variation of that and get on with my life.
