  Last week, the appearance of posting a new post changed. Now, I don’t get asked what kind of post it is (e.g. text, image, video etc.). Also, the image uploader on the new format is different–I don’t see the image while I’m writing, hence, I can not adjust the size of it, it simply says [gallery]. I want the old look and functions back. I tried using WordPress Help to troubleshoot, but all the examples are of the old appearance.

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

  There are currently some problems with the New Post button in the Reader. Staff has advised us to use the post editor in the main dashboard instead.

  Go to your blog’s main dashboard (http://tohighsandlowsandlotsoftext.wordpress.com/wp-admin/) and create a new post by clicking on Posts ->Add New in the sidebar menu. You’ll find creating posts this way is much more stable and provides many more options for making it look exactly like you want. http://en.support.wordpress.com/posts/new-post-screen/ Existing posts you can edit by going to Posts ->All Posts and clicking the Edit link under the post title.

  See here for inserting images from the post editor: http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/adding-images-to-posts-or-pages/
