and/or use the title attribute on the image in addition to the alt tag
-- title actually is intended to be a "tool tip", although depending on
your users, it may still crop part of the text. I don't know where
different browsers clip the attributes, but I'd guess there's a good
chance they'll allow a longer title than alt. But I know I've seen them cut
title attributes short too.
