 * Hey you guys,
    I have a galleries with lots of photo’s in it. Displayed using
   the NextGEN gallery plugin.
 * Is there a way when uploading photo’s(/media) to have the ‘alt’ attribute automatically
   not filled in, instead of having the file name automatically as ‘alt’? So I can
   write my own ‘alt’ or else have nothing as alt.
 * Using a filter or whatever is possible.
    Or it want it disabled for the page 
   template of the albums or just empty (on the template or the whole site).
 * I hope someone can help me out on this one!
    Thanks in advance!
