  My pictures are not showing up properly. When I copy/paste them into a post instead of uploading them, they sometimes show up and sometimes don’t. When they don’t, they look like a fuzzy white rectangle with a fuzzy blue, yellow, and red shape – maybe a cube? Can’t tell b/c it’s fuzzy. Is this because I’m supposed to upload all photos? If so, why does it sometimes work when I copy/paste? Thanks.

  The blog I need help with is: (visible only to logged in users)

  Copying and pasting images into posts will never ever work because they need to be hosted online on a web server and your computer is NOT a web server. Are you clear on that?
