    sometimes i’m guessing the server is busy and it takes several tries – sometimes waiting till a later time may help during busy times whenever they are!

    This is your first time ever blogging? But you can upload your images through WordPress. Just download the image to your computer. Then upload it where it shows this when you write a post:

    But if you’re going to post alot of images like me, then it’s better to upload images on thumbnails. I go to supload.com for when I want to upload many images at one time. Or get thumbnails at imageshack.us. But get the html codes there and place it on your post.

    But at imageshack, get the code where it says “Thumbnail for Websites”. Or if you want the actual size, which in my case always vanishes after, then that code is where it says “Hotlink for Websites”. But it starts with <a href=

    At supload.com, I like it better because the images last a little longer. But get the code where it says “HTML Code” and that also starts with <a href=. You can also resize images there too at the bottom. But thumbnails are also best for people who have dial-up because some visitors might leave if it takes too long for the pictures to load and it makes the site slower for them. I have high speed internet but it’s also a pain when I visit sites and they have full size pictures there.

    But we were all new at this at some point. Just play around with it and you’ll eventually get the hang of it. Also, don’t get images at imagerave or imagecrave. Those vanished on me after only a few weeks.

    There are now 3 different threads going on this subject. I’m also having image uploading probelms tonight. I think it may be a server issue.
