It's worth noting this isn't a TiddlyWiki thing, it's a general web thing. The alt text is a replacement for the image when it's not available (thus the word *alt*ernate), while the title text is a supplement to it providing more information. People often get confused and use the wrong one, partly because some browsers way back in the dark ages used to show the alt text when you hovered over an image.
