Embeddable Links Carry the Caption from SmugMug

Until this week, when I got a photo link to embed in my blog, it didn't carry the caption with it. Now, if a reader hovers over the picture, the caption from gallery pops up in a yellow box. I find this really irritating. Is this a bug, or was it done intentionally?

    We've always included the alt tag in the embeddable links that you get form share>get a link (though there was a bug, if you used the image chooser and went say, forward in your gallery, the alt tags wouldn't show up - we fixed that!).... if you don't want 'em, simply remove the alt="bla blah" from the embed. Simple as that.

    My mistake; you don't have to hover over the picture with the cursor to get the pop-up; just having the cursor near the picture brings up the caption. As noted before, very irritating.

    Simple perhaps ... but more work for me.

    You can also just grab the photo link and create your own embed if you like.
