  I am trying to upload an image and the Http error comes up. For some reason it looks like my page has completely changed. Last time I tried to post it looked different- Now everything is on a side bar and it won’t let me upload my images- Previously I could choose to upload an image from the top of the page by clicking a camera icon? So confused and need help- Thanks

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

  There has been a change to the post editor interface at https://wordpress.com/post/ and Staff are recommending that we bypass the New Dash in favor of posting directly on our sites at Dashboard > Posts > Add New. https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/where-did-the-add-media-button-go?replies=2#post-1927520

  For image uploading please note the Staff response here https://en.forums.wordpress.com/topic/why-is-there-now-only-small-pictures-in-the-post-can-i-get-them-big-again?replies=3#post-1927594

  There will be further new iterations of the post editor at https://wordpress.com/post/ and that is why the advice is to go to Dashboard > Post > Add New

  Thanks so much for your help! I really appreciate it!

  I logged in using Modzilla and was able to get my images to up load- I still really do not like the new format and wish they would change it back-

  I am very technically challenged- and this has made things lots harder for me-

  thank you aga

  Thanks so much for your help I am now able to upload my images, but they are much smaller than I would like- Before they were full size. Now they are just small a little bigger than thumbnail size?! Can you help me figure this out- This is important to me since one of the main reasons I began my blog was to post my art work, and now it is hard to see,

  Thanks for any help or advice on this!
