I had to click on the graphic to get more info. And I like it more the way it was before. Where I could just read the quote and think about the quote in general and not worry about anything else. Sorry these days I like to keep things simple.

Huh.. didn't think to check for alt text--figured it was just decoration for the quote. :)

I like the little image because it helps distinguish the QOTD post from other short ones around - helpful if I'm behind and skimming to catch up.

As far as the alt text goes - meh. It doesn't read very well on my screen due to weird wraps, so I'll probably never bother to hover it. If the info was a short text description giving more info on the quote, rather than a listing of stuff that happened that day, I might read it then.

The alt-text thing is cute (here and with XKCD). If the graphic is just a carrier for that, fine; if the graphic is supposed to have independent meaning, then I suspect anything small enough to not be cluttered will be too small to see clearly.

"Don't care" doesn't quite capture this; I think the added info is nice but I'm not sure about how to implement it. Now that I know this is what you're doing I'll hover to get as much of the text as Firefox will give me; I probably won't bother to scroll through the longer ones via properties. (I don't care enough to try to search for the right extension, but if someone provides a link I'll install it.)

I thought this one relatively neutral, but my level of not/caring likely depends upon whatthe future graphics will be...
