  I have tried many ways to upload my photo. I have tried your suggestions. I have made the image smaller and as jpeg. When I look at my brand new blog there is only a red ‘x’ where the image should be. I have really, really tried. I’m getting close to bailing and trying blogger instead.

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

  That sounds like a browser issue to me.

  Do not log-in on the front page of WordPress.com. Do not create posts here > http://wordpress.com/#!/post/

  Instead I recommend that you ONLY log-in directly you your own blog and ONLY create posts and edit them here > Dashboard > Posts > All Posts > Add New

  If you are not running one of the browsers and versions listed at http://browsehappy.com/ please try upgrading or switching first.

  Note: If you are using an IE9 browser in compatibility mode that makes it render as IE7 and IE7 is not supported. To disable see > http://www.sevenforums.com/tutorials/1196-internet-explorer-compatibility-view-turn-off.html

  If you are, please do these four things:

  1. Try clearing your browser’s cache http://www.google.com/support/accounts/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=32050

  2. Make sure that you have third-party cookies enabled http://en.support.wordpress.com/third-party-cookies/

  3. Try with all browser extensions or add-ons temporarily disabled.

  4. Try enabling HTTPS: http://en.support.wordpress.com/https/

  If you are not successful let us know which browser (and version of it) you’re using and post any error reports you get.

  These are the accepted file types:
