  Instead I recommend that you ONLY log-in directly you your own blog and ONLY create posts and edit them here > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  P.S. The most common issue with images is blogger uploading HUGE images from their cameras directly into their blogs. That amounts to trying to park a Mac truck and semi-trailer into a Vespa sized parking space. If you want better image quality and don’t want to squander your image storage space then use an image editing application to re-size copies of your images to the specific dimensions required before uploading them. http://onecoolsitebloggingtips.com/2012/03/26/cropper-or-proper-image-preparation-2/
