  Can someone help me figure out what I am doing wrong? I have added 3 images to my post but only 2 are showing up. I have researched this topic and followed the directions but 1 picture just won’t show up no matter what I do. It’s a JPG file. Thanks in advance!

  I have done that too but it didn’t work. What’s strange is that I can view this on my mac but pc users cannot see the image….so strange.

  When creating and uploading an image to wordpress.com here are some basics worth remembering:
  (1) Be sure your image is one of these file types – jpg, jpeg, png, gif (Note that bmp’s cannot be uploaded due to size).
  (2) Do not use anything in the file name except letters and numbers. Use no spaces, no dashes, no underscores, or any type of special character or punctuation, except for the dot between the file name and the extension. Also make sure that the file name has an extension.
  (3) If you are using iPhoto, then use the “export” function under the file menu to export the image to your desktop before trying to upload it to WordPress.
  (4) If you are not using the image in thumbnail size, make sure that the image is not too wide for the post area in your particular theme. You can find maximum image widths for the most popular themes here: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/09/25/how-big-can-my-images-be/
  (5) Optimize your images so that your blog pages will load faster. See http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/08/optimise-your-images/
  (6) How to upload pictures in posts: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/07/16/how-do-i-upload-pictures/
  (7) How do I get text to go around a picture: http://faq.wordpress.com/2006/05/29/how-do-i-get-text-to-go-around-a-picture/

  Can you give us the exact URL of the uploaded photo? You can find it in your Uploads box under Edit. Then we can try loading it on our computers and see if the problem is with the file or with the blog itself. Nice blog, btw.

  raincoaster, thank you :) here is the URL http://fedali.wordpress.com/files/2008/01/julie.jpg

  thesacredpath, thank you for all the suggestions. I think I have tried everything. Even created a new file and renamed it, made it smaller, etc. I am not using iphoto to upload.
