  When I insert my jpeg image, the picture doesn’t show. With or without pics, when I try to preview my page, it won’t show.

  Both of the above result in a view that looks like code, and ends with “if you like what you see here, follow to get email updates each time……” and then a blank space to enter an email to subscribe (to my own blog)

  I have been having the same issue since midday Friday and have burned hours looking for a solution.

  If you find it, please send it my way.

  Note this please > Preview Problems and Third Party Cookies

  If enabling third party cookies does not work for you then please answer these questions:

  (1) How are you connecting to the internet and to WordPress.com?

  I’m asking because the way you connect to the internet (mobile, satellite, DSL, dial-up) and to your blog, and how many proxy server jumps etc. it takes to connect can cause problems. There maybe be problems with your ISP and/or with the proxy servers. Also note that the main dashboard isn’t designed to work with touch devices through the tablet and smartphone browsers.

  (2) What is your operating system and exactly which browser and version of it are you using. If you don’t know click here to find out > http://whatsmyuseragent.com/
  Note: If you are running IE9 in compatibility mode then be aware that it renders as IE7 and IE7 is not supported.

  (3) Have you tried?
  clearing your browser cache and cookies > http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050
  using the browser with all extensions or add-ons disabled
  updating the browser to the latest stable version (not a buggy BETA browser version) http://browsehappy.com/
  using another browser

  (4) Are you logging in using the secure https:// log-in? see http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

  Re: uploading images
  These are the accepted file types:
  .jpg/.jpeg
  .gif
  .png
  instructions here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/
  Here are more details about the options for uploading images: http://wpbtips.wordpress.com/2009/04/26/images-the-three-link-options/

  troubleshooting images here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/troubleshooting-images/
  Note the most common problem is caused by people attempting to upload HUGE images right off their cameras in to their blogs.

  Prior to uploading any image into your blog, regardless if it’s a header image, a featured image, an image in a post or page, in a Post format (Gallery or Image), an image for sidebar display in an image widget or a text widget, you can optimize and re-size it in either a desktop image editing software or online image editing software to fit the space you intend to use it in. By undertaking proper image preparation first you will get the best image quality, won’t be wasting your media storage space, and won’t be wasting your time troubleshooting.

  Until now, as far as I can see (as a volunteer moderator), this thread has not been closed until now. I believe staff is away for a while at this point.

  I can modlook one thread (or your multiple entries) for you. Staff does look in when we volunteers cannot help.

  The multiple entries waste your time and ours. Perhaps you need a cup of tea or a walk, or whatever to make for a calmer and more logical presentation of your question.
