Is the img alt text possible with this current code?

<?php  if((get_post_meta($post->ID, "image", true))) { ?>
<img src='/images/<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "image", true); ?>' />
 <?php } ?>

What about something like this?

<?php  if((get_post_meta($post->ID, "image", true))) { ?>
<img alt='<?php the_title(); ?>' src='/images/<?php echo get_post_meta($post->ID, "image", true); ?>' />
 <?php } ?>

That might be my only option. I wanted to match the alt text in the backend, but so far no luck. I tried this.

<img alt='<?php get_post_meta($post->ID, '_wp_attachment_image_alt', true); ?>

Oh, check out the_post_thumbnail() and the arguments you can pass. It has the answer there.
