It labels its illustration as a preview of the game lobby and describes the Android app beside it. A caption such as \u201cLobby preview on the publisher\u2019s Android app page\u201d identifies both the subject and the source. Calling the same image a live online session would add something the original page does not establish. Even the date you saved the page only tells you when you saw the picture.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Cropping can change the way readers understand that distinction. Remove the label above the image and a preview can look like a screen captured by the reporter. Copy it into an article about browser access and a reader may assume it shows the browser edition. If you know only where the image appeared, say that. Keep a copy of the surrounding page for the person checking the caption, and confirm permission before republishing the image itself.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The visible caption and the image description have different jobs. A caption can name the publisher and say the picture is a preview. The alternative text should convey the part of the picture the article discusses. If that is a choice between games in a lobby, describe that choice. Repeating the brand name alone leaves a reader who cannot see the image with no idea what it was meant to show.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>\u201cA busy table this morning\u201d sounds like an ordinary picture caption.
