  Hey there, after the paragraph, try typing /image on its own new line to add a single image. You can then resize it, change alignment, or move it. You could also use /gallery if you’d like to add more than one image.

  This video can help, and we also have a longer written guide here.

  I just found this request, too:

  How can I access newly taken photos on my computer to add to my blog

  Do you take them with your phone? If so, it may be easier for you to add images using the Jetpack app. Install that, log into your WordPress.com account, and then you can just upload images directly to your media library.

  But if they are on your computer, typing /image and then dragging the image from wherever it is on the computer to that spot can work.

  Let us know if you have any trouble with this!
