I would like to have a collection of images that are rendered into the browser. If for example I had

Images:

[img1 ; img2 ; img3 ; img4 ; img 5;]

Category:

[cat1 ; cat2 ; cat3]

Problem:

Assume image 1 belonged in both cat1 and cat2. Would it be better for SEO purposes to upload image1 with different alt tags? OR should I upload the same image twice using different URL's?

Note: I have folder pattern such as

/dir/cat1/
/dir/cat2/
/dir/cat3/

The image goes in the folder in which category it belongs. So if the image is best not duplicated, I will use the first choice.

If you are trying to get the images ranked in Google Image Search, then a single image used in multiple pages is a much better idea. How well an image ranks depends on the amount of PageRank that it has. It has more PageRank when it is used in multiple pages.

It is also better for your server bandwidth and usability to link images from multiple locations rather than copy the image. When a user visits two of your pages that contain the image, the image should come from the browser cache on the second page view. That page will load faster for the user and put less stress on your server because you did not copy the image.
