When images are chopped, how does the ALT tag work?

Hi! I'm just wondering, how does the ALT tag works if the images are chopped? I've read that some of the search engines use the image's ALT tag to index an image. What happens now if the image is chopped? What could be the possible solution to still index a particular image just by looking at ALT tag even the image is chopped? Thanks in advance to those who'll reply on this thread.

Basically in an "IMG" tag there is an Element called "ALT" that can contain a String value.

("ALT" stands for Alternative)

A String is just a line of text that can be used to describe what the image is. It also allows the Text to be shown when a mouse cursor "Hovers" over an image (That means moved over it)

The only time this doesn't work is when the "IMG" tag is surrounded by an "A" tag (anchor) that contains a "TITLE" element.

The "TITLE" elements string will take presidence over a mouse hovering.
