So, Solonify generates more-or-less accessible HTML? This means it at least creates alt-tags for each image? Is that correct?

Yes. The alt tag for each image is the caption. Anyone visiting the page can add or modify captions; or the administrator can disable user-captioning. I’m not really sure how useful an image slideshow program is without any images, but it does support that functionality.

That's great!

I am trying to get it to work right now, but am not very good at getting anything but the simplest scripts up and running. I may just pay someone to install it for me.

If you send me your email address, I can probably put you in touch with someone who could probably do it remotely (over the phone/Internet) at a reasonable cost and quickly, who is familiar with the code.

Hmmm... But the alt tags, long desciptions, captions, etc., all should help people who use screen readers, for example, get more out of the site than they otherwise would, I hope. Not perfect, I know, but at least an attempt to be inclusive.

That would be super. Let's use my school address. (I am a high school teacher and this is a service project.) e-mail: [removed]

Thanks,
