   This is the best image sitemap plugin I've tested as you include the following elements

   </image:loc>
   <image:caption/>
   <image:title>

   Is there an element to include the ALT image tag?

   The alt attribute is attribute of img html tag.Google sitemap protocol supports tags like loc,caption and title.The caption includes alt text.You can verify the same by uploading an image with alt text and then see the sitemap.

   As you can see there is no alt tag in the image sitemap... all my images have alt text though.

   OK.I got your question.When you upload image using wordpress upload you can specify

   1.Title
   2.alternate text
   3.caption
   4.description

   WordPress does not store alternate text in table.Rest of the attributes are stored in table.

   Now while creating the sitemap Caption and Title are used (google sitemap protocol also does not have alternate text).For details please see

   Google Image Sitemap protocol

   Hope this helps.Please ignore my earlier comment as I misunderstood your point.
