Here's the best thing you can do:
1. Put the keywords in the tags of images.
2. Put the keywords in the file-name of the images.
3. Make sure you surround your images with a bunch of related text.
Other than that there's really not much you can do for image SEO.

Format - .jpg and .png are best
Quality - the higher the better
Work on image meta - descriptions, title, rating (with keywords in all these)...
Location - the higher it appears on page, the better for image seo
Relevancy - is the content of the page relevant to the image?
Refresh- if you want the image to keep coming up in news and realtime search, keep rel-uploading to keep it fresh and new
Share- make it easy to bookmark and share your image throughout the web
When naming Image file.
Do:
- Include image resolution
- Describe image content
- Include generic names/keywords like wallpaper, screenshot, and etc.
Do not:
- use meaningless names (e.g. lkjghf123.jpg)
- use excessively long file names
- use irrelevant keywords

I used png's almost exclusively on my last site, because they look so much better than anything else in modern browsers. That's italicized because, of course you know, that IE6 doesn't render png transparency, and even with the alpha-loader png's still look like crap. So, on that site I locked out IE6.
Thoughts on doing that? By now IE6 has a pretty small share. Even Microsoft is trying to kill it. When you've got a complex style using png's trying to accomodate IE6 to render the same as all the other browsers that render just fine is a bitch. You might just as well come up with a whole different style just for IE6, and I don't think that's worth the effort any more.
