  http://support.wordpress.com/space-upgrade/ is one way. You have to renew the upgrade each year to keep uploading files.

  Another way is to upload your images at a free service that allows you to link it to another site and then put the URL of the image in the “By URL”

  Odd…don’t think I hit the “Post” button but refreshed the page.

  Anyway, …”By URL” in the Image Uploader window, “Add media file from URL”. http://wordpress.tv/2009/01/05/embedding-photos-video-audio-into-your-posts/

  And another way: As I guessed on reading your question, you’ve wasted your available space by uploading unnecessarily big files. You could start editing copies of them to scale them down and/or make them web optimized, then ulpoad those copies, then delete the original ones from your media library. That would also make your blog more browser-friendly, especially for visitors with a slow connection (your pages take too long to load now).

  And please paste the exact URL of your blog when asking questions here – or link your nickname to your blog as explained in the Sticky 8 Things to Know. Helps us help you.
