New snek just dropped (with style) | Flight Rising Discussion

[quote name="@Seraitsukara" date="2024-03-24 11:20:07" ] Dumb question, what is meant by "alt text"? The tooltip text doesn't mention the snake's species. [/quote] alt text stands for alternative text, which is text that appears when you hover over an image! It's mainly used to tell the user what the image is in case it doesn't load. People with screenreaders also use these to know what's on the screen if they have a hard time seeing So I'm guessing staff described the snake outright in the alt text of the familiar image

Hover your mouse over the announcement header, and it'll display a box of text similar to a tooltip which tells you everything in the image, including the species of snake.

Chaos.

For months I was wondering if they were gonna go with a Paradise Tree Snake for MistJam, but it's been ages since I last saw a video or photo of one, so for a moment I thought it was a Garter or even a Ribbon Snake.

Glad they decided to go with this idea!
