apologies if this answered elsewhere. i couldn't find it.

can i change the image labels to something else so that that the link that gets displayed is more descriptive?

specifically i'd like the link that says 'Original' to say something like 'View larger image'. the word 'original' is not very informative to the user.

how can this be done?

you'd think the 'label' field would just be editable, but it seems that the default ones are not.

thanks.

never mind about this.

i have used contemplate to pull the link onto a custom template with new wording.

then hidden the original link with CSS.

if there is a simpler way, i'd be happy to hear it, but this does the job nicely.

If you mean the node links, they can be modified with hook_link_alter.

hi joachim,

do you have an example on how to do that? i would be very interested. i'd like to change the link text from original to download.
i tried to find the responsible code somewhere in the image.module file but no luck.
