The way I post up images is a bit long winded but is actually quite quick and easy once you get used to it.
All free blog sites have a memory limit on the amount of images you can internally upload, so most bloggers use sites such as Flickr to store their images in. Flickr is a free image sharing site owned by Yahoo.
1. Log into the blog and go to the ‘write’ section’. Click on the tab saying ‘code’ above the text window. No minimise that internet browser window and open a new one.
2. In the new internet window go to flickr.com and Register (if you haven’t registered already) SORRY BUT I HAVE TO SAY IT, MAKE A NOTE OF YOUR NEW FLICKR USERNAME AND PASSWORD. 
3. Upload any images you want to use into Flickr.
4. Double click the image thumbnail of the one you want to blog first and then click on the ‘All sizes’ icon that is just above the image.
5. It will automatically open the largest size available. Click on ‘medium’, which can be found just above the huge image.
6. When it opens the medium size image, scroll down and you will see that Flickr has given you a load of html code for the image, and also a web address. Copy the code.
7. Open up the blog internet window and Paste that code into window where you would usually write your blog post. (make sure it is in ‘code’ tab mode’).
8. Now click onto the ‘Visual’ tab, and you should see your photo, which you can now type above or under at your leisure. If you want to insert another photo then just go back to Flickr and copy the ‘medium size’ code for the next image you want, and paste that back into the ‘code’ mode of the blog text window above or below what’s already in there.
I know this may sound complicated but once you actually go through the motions it is actually quite straight forward and becomes more intuitive.
There is a way of linking your Flickr account directly to the blog but when it posts it up it looks a bit rubbish and you can only put one image in a post.

(P.S. If in your blog window when you write a post you see a small tree icon just above where you would write your message, then that is really useful. Click that and copy and paste into the ‘Image url’ section the ‘medium’ size web address that Flickr gives you for the image you want. That way you don’t have to mess about with code. I noticed though that in China not all of us could see that icon when we were posting.)

I’ll end here but I hope that all makes some kind of sense. Trust me, print it off and follow the steps and it should word.
(Famous last words!)
Let me know how it goes or if any problems.
