Image searching confusion

[Chrisrngc]

I noticed that most of my hits are from people searching for a "Legend of Zelda" wallpaper on Google and other search engines. I would really like to take advantage of this and bring in hits off my other wallpapers.

I do have other wallpapers but they don't show up on the image search...why? And how would I ensure that any new wallpapers would be in the image search?

You gotta make sure the image name or alt text has the search words in it... I would assume.

By the alt text do you mean the "hover-over" text?...I don't use that.

Or do you mean the text next to the image.

Alt text is the hover-over text. To use the Alternate Text add a alt="description" to your img tags or if you use Dreamweaver add the descption in the Alt field.

I'm not sure that they use the alt text though. The Zelda wallpaper has no alt text but it gets a lot of hits for me.

Is there any way that I can make google add the images?They say they are crawling websites but it'll probably take ages.
