  Since 3 days ago, I can’t upload any image to my blog. I try all day, but all images got “IO error”, all stop at 17%.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Have you tried the Browser uploader instead of the Flash uploader?

  Yes. Then appear an error page.

  With Firefox:
  The connection was reset
  The connection to the server was reset while the page was loading.

  With Opera:
  Connection closed by remote server
  You tried to access the address http://tiubungbu.wordpress.com/wp-admin/media-upload.php?inline=&upload-page-form=, which is currently unavailable. Please make sure that the web address (URL) is correctly spelled and punctuated, then try reloading the page.

  Are you in Singapore by chance? There have been issues with ISPs in Singapore.

  I have a similar problem… It takes ages to upload images and when it does upload I get a red cross on the right… this problem is however restricted to only one of my wordpress blogs, the other is fine…

  Thanks Timethief.
  I think its a bug though – I have 2 new blogs set up, and the error is only on one of them.
  Updated browser and tried everything else – no change.
  Hopefully support will suss it out :o)
  Cheers

  Have you contacted Staff directly by using this link? Tim thinking that they cannot “suss out” anything they aren’t aware of the issue. http://en.support.wordpress.com/contact/

  Hiya – yes, Iv reported it to them and they are looking into it.
  I just thought Id mention it here in case it was a known issue – I didnt want to waste their time if it was an easy fix from my end!
  Cheers

  I had six replies to my query on line double spacing. Thanks guys.
  Timethief wins the coconut for understanding the problem and supplying a solution. It appears that misseytwisted also was helped although I would expect that many have run into the same problem.

  I have now posted my second blog and have run into two more problems:
  Although the initial document contained text (.doc) and images (.jpeg), when the saved copy was pasted onto the proto-blog the words were fine but the images were absent ?
  My second blog appears on the web above my first document. I would like to know how to arrange the order of appearance according to my requirements.
