  Is it possible on my blog to post a thumbnail image, which, when people click on, it takes them to a new tab with the full size image? sorry if this seems basic.

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

  Is this the blog you are talking about http://mickeylam.wordpress.com/ ?

  When you insert an image, but before pressing “insert into post” click the “file URL button and the image will be linked to the full-sized image.

  Well, yes that is true, but I assumed they would know that. Now what was that saying about assuming?
