Comment (by hiwhatsup):

 {{{
 the_post_thumbnail( 'post-thumbnail', array( 'alt'=>get_the_title() ) );
 }}}

 The parameter {{{post-thumbnail}}} seems redundant as {{{post-thumbnail}}}
 is the default value for size parameter of function
 {{{the_post_thumbnail()}}}.   And second defined parameter overrides the
 default value for image {{{alt}}} of  {{{ 'alt'   => trim( strip_tags(
 $wp_postmeta->_wp_attachment_image_alt ) ) }}}.

 Is there a reason for returning the post title in place of the image alt
 value for the image {{{alt}}}?
