Images

Hi, I’m having trouble seeing my images on my blog but I see them in the ‘my site’/editing version? Particular my ‘About’ section and one post called ‘Harlow Ann Marie’. HELP!
The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

Hi, are you setting these images as the ‘Featured Image’ in the post? These don’t put them in the posts themselves, and you have to instead use “Add Media” to insert the image into the post itself.
Featured Images are used for when you’re listing posts and showing it as a ‘thumbnail’ – depending on the theme’s layout.
When making a post, move your typing cursor to where you want to insert the image, and then above the controls to format text, you can add media. Select the one you want, and then insert it into the post. That should do the trick.

Thank you. Yes I am new to this and have onlybeen adding a “Featured Image”. Thank you for explaining now to add an image within the post-bc I didn’t know how to do that. I have a “Featured Image” selected for my about section but it’s not showing up for whatever reason. I go to edit-and it’s there

Glad I could be of assistance.
Unfortunately this is the case with some themes that the Featured Image is not included in the code as part of the actual post itself – only when you view them in ‘list’ form such as on your Homepage. This seems to be the case with the theme you’re using (Penscratch)
What you will need to do while using this theme is manually add the image again (wherever you want it placed) when making the post using the method I explained above.
Hope that helps. :) Feel free to drop any questions should you feel a little lost still.
