But being a lot of work for a few people who need it is one of the main complaints by folks when the ADA was passed and required that public accommodations be accessible to all, regardless of disability. Yes, it is somewhat more work for the rest of us - but the additional work each of us has to do to help level the playing field is far less than the work (and expense) folks with disabilities do just to get by - and, as for image descriptions, there aren't even tools for them to get by if the images don't include descriptions.

(And I did start out by saying that the way I've seen it incorporated is when the site itself hosts the images - then it is a simple addition of a text box pop-up whenever there is a upload.)
