  I have uploaded seven images in the same post. The first image is the only one I can enlarge. Why can’t I enlarge everyone?

  These are my options;
  “Show: Thumbnail”
  “Link to: File”

  I cannot answer your question because I do not know the sizes of the images in question. This thread contains the maximum sizes allowed that will not break your blog layout http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/09/25/how-big-can-my-images-be/
  The best bet for images is to register for a free off-line account with zoomr, flickr or photobucket. You then store the full size photos which are linked to thumbnails on your blog offline. Your readers can choose to click on the thumbnails and get full size views or not.

  Filling your blog with large images only means that it takes forever to load the pages and that means some people just click out rather than waiting. It’s particularly a hardship for dial-up users. And, if on top of having large images you do not limit the number of posts containing images that you place on the front page the waiting time can be a factor that deters readers from ever returning to read your blog. You have a maximum allowance of 5o megs for images and if you exceed that you can buy more storage space. http://wordpress.com/blog/2006/12/06/running-out-of-space/

  I don’t think you actually need to. I clicked them all and every one displayed full size for me on a new page.
