How do I upload pictures? [Screencast]

Note: Please also read the other posts in this section of the FAQ.

Here’s a 2 minute screencast that walks through upload an image.

*If you cannot view or download the screencast, check out the ’screenshots’ version here.

Your options for how to display an image.

Show:
Thumbnail: Show a thumbnail of your image
Full size: Show the entire image in its full size
Title: Show the title of your image (in text)

Link to:
File: The thumbnail/image/title links to the original file
Page: The thumbnail/image/title links to a separate page with the image on it
None: The thumbnail/image/title is not linked to anything

Always click “Send to Editor” to get the image into your post.

If your images are always thumbnails:

Click Code in your editor.
You will see something like this for your image:
<img src=”http://yourblog.files.wordpress.com/2006/07/image.jpg alt=”image” height=”96” />
see the height bit? That’s the problem.

Edit that out to get
<img src=”http://yourblog.files.wordpress.com/2006/07/image.jpg alt=”image” />
and you will get the full image.
