Default Alt Tags? Worth Doing?

Are Alt tags worth doing? I just want to know before I start doing all the images on my site...

Oh yes. Alt tags are an important part of on site SEO. Most of the CMS software like Wordpress or Joomla does it automatically.

Yes, they help, and since they only take 2 seconds, why not do them...

Search engines read the image description by using alt tags only

Yip definitely. If not all of them, at least a few on each page which contain your main keyword in the alt text.
