  As Admin of your blog you can have commenters post URLs for images hosted somewhere online and approve them if you wish. There is no setting to enable images in comments. If there were then our comments would be full of unwanted spam like porno images and over 80% of all comments submitted to WordPress.COM blogs every day is spam.

  Blogs are not wikis so there is no everyone can post scenario.

  There is no limitation on the total number of contributors to any blog. If you’d like to invite others to publish posts or help approve comments on your blog, you can invite them to be a Contributor, Editor, or Author. If you want users to receive updates each time you publish new content you can invite them to be a follower/viewer.
  See here:

  They need to register username accounts but do not need to register blogs. They will need to click the “Accept Invitation” button in the invitation email. If they are logged into their WordPress.com account, they will be taken directly to your blog. If not, they will be taken to the log-in screen, where they can either log in or create a new user account.

  Note that users who create a new WordPress.com account at that point will still need to return to the invitation email and click the “Accept Invitation” button after doing so.

  The limit is 10 invitations at any point in time. It’s a spammer prevention limit. So simply wait and then send out 10 more.
