just username would do 
photos   usernames photo by default and description if the images has a description

also on mobiles and tablet  user and photo carousels
on click it open keyboard for some reasons its like they think there text input areas

Hi guys,


Images in the carousel displayed using `background-image` css attribute not `img` tag. I have spoken with a professional SEO consultant and he told me that there is no need to add `alt` attribute to a `div` with background image - it will not have any effect.

to use background images here is against every developers guidelines 
please do a search on it 

they should be proper img tags


infact i thought the only problem with the 2 plugins was alt tags 
now knowing this and how bad of coding it is and how much google and other will be pelilise me for this i have no choice but to remove both plugins from my site 



also with the oabost and rocket loaders compress the js problem
i thing u can reproduce it by use https://developers.google.com/speed/pagespeed/insights/

it will compress the css and js for the plugins upload them and the images stop working

and your professional SEO consultant  is not worth feeding let alone listen to 

a back ground image does not need alt tags if used as it should be and be the background of the dev
background images should and never be used how they are as display images
