Sorry if this is taking this slightly off topic...
(Still good practice to give your images descriptive ALT tags for accessibility reasons however)

Seeing as Google is the SE that places the most weight on links, it is only for Google I was talking about. My 9 year old daughter can get a site to first page on Yahoo, and her doll Lizzy can get one to rank page 1 on MSn, such is the complexity of their algorithms
For Google, the alt image attribute text is largely ignored (unless there is no other text on the page). HOWEVER, if the image is a link, then the alt text att becomes the anchor text of that link
But if you are looking for the meta editor onin dreamweaver, the title is at the top of the page you have open. To the left you will seea drop down menu that defaults to 'common' play around with this, some of it is uin the html area I believe.
