how do I put a rss with pictures on the post box
-
Hello, I am new to wordpress although I have researched a lot about the following:
1) I want to provide others with content (pictures and text) in an rss feed form (so far all rss feed examples I’ve seen are text only and haven’t found any source to confirm or deny) that they can put in their blogs.
2) I want to find out how, with my own blog, could I put the rss feed (with pictures) on the *post* box of my blog
Thanks and hope the question isn’t too dumb :)

RSS feeds cannot be put into pages or posts. With the RSS widget, you can put your feed in your sidebar, but it is text only.
-
Is your blog hosted here at wordpress.com? If so, the RSS feed on your blog won’t show pictures. And we cannot put RSS feeds in posts, only on the sidebar.
If you are self-hosted, you’re in the wrong forum.

By the way, it helps the volunteers here in the forums out a lot if you link your blog to your username: https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/how-to-make-your-name-link-to-your-blog?replies=54

My blog is listed in this forum. I will certainly research on how to link my username to my wordpress hosted blog :)… I am still confused as to how other people do it?… I see other people placing pictures and text on the *posts* area of their blogs, which the pull out from a life feed list… how do they do it??
many thanks

Post a link to a blog where you see that happening. I’ll bet it is a self-hosted wordpress blog, which is not the same as the blogs hosted here at wordpress.com https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/please-read-me-first-before-posting?replies=1
As for putting your blog in your username, TSP gave you the link. Your blog isn’t listed in this forum, unless you link it in your username or post it as a part of your question.
(We get a lot of folks who think wordpress.ORG is the same as wordpress.COM. That’s why we ask for a blog link.)

And David, the link I posted above, explains how to link your blog to your username.
