  re: http://trishgreg.wordpress.com/

  The good news is that your site is hosted by wordpress.COM and the version of WordPress software every wordpress.COM site runs on is the most recent one. Here, at wordpress.COM our Staff do all version upgrades for us users, and they are done 1 month before they are released to wordpress.ORG users.

  If you are reading anything other than the relevant support documentation here http://support.wordpress.com that applies to all wordpress.COM hosted blogs like your site then toss it away as it does not apply to your site.

  If the answer is no then have you tried dragging an image straight from your desktop or computer’s image folder and drop it directly into your post’s editor?

  If you prefer you can click on the Add Media button from the toolbar of your editor to upload an image to your post.

  For uploading images into posts and pages see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/adding-images-to-posts-or-pages/

  For using the new editor for this see the instructions Staff ie. supernovia provided here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/images-arent-clickable-any-more?replies=15#post-2530659

  Hi, how are you?

  If you site is hosted on WordPress.com you don’t need worry about this, when a new version of WordPress is released, your site is automatically updated.

  Regards.

  I just took your advice, time thief, and dragged my photo into the post. Yay, it worked. Thank you for your help.
