I dont get that

Do you mean that I should place the meta-tags above <head>???

Overarm,

Your HTML is full or errors. Sometimes that can keep Google from indexing it.

Fix it up with http://validator.w3.org/

Keep them where they are

theyre fine.
Start by adding in a real title that has a descriptive title of your site.
Somewhere on that page youve got to get some text - Google loves it and it really needs something to index - if the page is all links there isnt much to work with for the robot.

Sorry my bad. I was rushing around earlier today. The tags are fine where they are at

What about the alt tags for the images - can google index by them?
Can textlinks do the job, or do I have to write an entire story?

alt tags will count towards some little part of their ranking - for the pictures - but for the page overall you need some good text - it doesnt have to be a story - just a few sentences somewhere on the page (actually a few different places is even better) - just saying how hot your site is and how often you update those free porn pictures LOL - just sprinkle it with the keywords you want
