  Your detailed theme description page is at https://wordpress.com/themes/twentysixteen/ and that’s where set up instructions for it are found. The live demo site is at https://twentysixteendemo.wordpress.com/

  You must be logged in under the exact same username that registered the site to be able to access the site. The Admin login link to the dashboard for every blog hosted by wordpress.COM is:

  http://NAME_OF_BLOG.wordpress.com/wp-admin/

  Replace NAME_OF_BLOG in that URL with the actual name of your blog.

  If you are not logged in under the correct username account then clear your browser cache https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-your-browser-cache and cookies https://en.support.wordpress.com/browser-issues/#clearing-wordpress-com-cookies and then login correctly under the relevant username account.

  If the login information has been lost go to
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/passwords/#lost-password

  If required use the account recovery form
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/account-recovery/
  https://en.support.wordpress.com/account-recovery/#account-recovery-form

  All support docs are here https://en.support.wordpress.com/
  Go to https://en.support.wordpress.com/create-a-blog/

  Assuming you can login note that on the bottom of your Admin page you will find a link to the step by step Learn WordPress.com blogging Tutorial prepared by Staff. http://learn.wordpress.com/

  re: images

  For accepted file types for uploading see here http://en.support.wordpress.com/accepted-filetypes/

  Are you running a browser and version of it found at http://browsehappy.com? If not, upgrade.

  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.

  See: https://en.support.wordpress.com/images/adding-images-to-posts-or-pages/

  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

  For image editing see here https://en.support.wordpress.com/images/image-editing/

  For troubleshooting images see here > http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/troubleshooting-images/

  If you upload lots of images you can exhaust that free space allocation quickly. Currently, the only way to get an extra space allocation after you upload the images again, is to purchase an upgrade bundle. https://en.support.wordpress.com/space-upgrade/
