I've been experimenting with various uploads to implement a gallery and im just wondering...
Is it possible to add extra properties to these images? On uploading, umbraco displays the size and type of the image, im wanting to add a field to allow users to enter a title and alt text for the image, is this possible?
Under Settings > Media types > Image you can add any kind of property that you need. However it's currently only possible to edit these extra fields from the media section of Umbraco. What I usually do is use the title of the image (that you have to enter before uploading) as the alt/title text.

Hello,
If you're using DAMP there is some custom code where you can set the properties while creating media: http://our.umbraco.org/projects/backoffice-extensions/digibiz-advanced-media-picker/digibiz-advanced-media-picker/22665-Extending-Digibiz-advanced-Media-Picker-with-Additonal-Fields#comment120717
The custom code is here: http://damp.codeplex.com/SourceControl/changeset/51fa3c881d31
