Hi !  
I am a very very beginner with html ( i work with dw8)  
I have a problem …  
I read that putting alt text ( in my case to pictures) helps search engines.  
So I have a HTML page with 10 images and a bit of text, the restt is a flash site.  
I did put the alt text everywhere I could, but still after 2 months on the web, I cant find my images or anything else with any of the search engines.  
I keyworded, but I am sure that i do sthing wrong. Could sbdy guide me ?  
Thanks
