Comment (by alexstine):

 @coffee2code Can you find me a photo with ALT text? Happy to check but
 having a hard time finding one.

 Also, couple edits needed for the form.

 {{{
 <textarea name="post_content" id="ug_content" class="textarea"
 maxlength="350" required="required" aria-required="true"></textarea>
 }}}

 HTML5 required attribute is good enough, no need to have aria-required.
 Aria-required is only needed when HTML5 validation needs to be avoided.

 Can you add aria-describedby to associate the help text? Something like:

 {{{
 aria-describedby="ug_help_sr"
 }}}

 Then you simply add an ID to the description text with the value of aria-
 describedby.
