Add guidance on decorative images in our automated message #12

Closed kendallgassner closed 1 year ago

What

A decorative image should not have alt text and instead should have null alt text: alt=''.

Currently we do not have guidance on decorative images in our automated message. Let's add some!

@kendallgassner Since images on GitHub all render as a link, should we continue to require alt text for images to avoid links with no name, for now?

Oh good thought 🤔!

Maybe we can add that as a note instead.
