  My turn to join the chorus of complaints about the new media manager. :-)

  I have no problem uploading photos, but when I click ‘Insert into Post’ it automatically inserts the photo into the first line of the post, even when I’ve got my mouse all the way after the last paragraph. I’m working around this by cutting and pasting, but it’s extremely annoying!

  It wasn’t happening yesterday, so hopefully it’ll be fixed soon. Did I say how annoying it is? I’m using Firefox, btw.

  That problem is specific to Firefox 16 and upgrading to Firefox 17 seems to solve the problem. http://browsehappy.com
  Another workaround is to insert images in Text mode, by clicking the Text tab next to the Visual Editor tab.
