Hi Sarun

Firstly, please note that you are posting in the Community Forum for users of the free Types plugin. As a Toolset customer you can and should post in the Technical Support forum which we prioritise and where you should receive speedier service. Sorry for the delay getting back to you here.

Those images are added to the media library, so you can go into the media library and edit them to add titles, alt tags etc.

If you don't want to do that, you could add a text custom field to describe the image, but to connect the text to the image you would have to create what we call repeating field groups. That is not so straightforward currently—it requires creating a child post type to act as a container for the repeating fields, but will become much easier in Types 3.0, which we expect to go from beta to stable next month.
