Hi Patrick, Thank you very much! In my case the image is a thumbnail, on which you can see the content of the image quite well and this links to the same image, but as a large image. Because I always give information about the KB of the large image, I think it's right to give the TITLE to the <a href-Tag>.

It depends on what information you're providing with the title. Are you clarifying something about the image, or about the resource you're linking to? In the first case, you'd want the title as an attribute of the image, in the second as an attribute of the link. Fairly straightforward, if you stop and consider what you're using the title for.
