Why are my posts blank when I try to post a picture?

[kathyinmo]

When I hit the reply button, I get a copy (a "quote") from one of the above posts.... one of mine. I have reported this, but I have no idea if I am being heard. I don't know if this is a bug or what.

Yes, I can hit quote and see what is in the blank posts. BUT, I get "multiple" quotes when I hit the quote button.

This is so frustrating to me. Mostly because I don't hear any feedback. Is this gonna be fixed or I do I just give up and quit now..........

Did you ever figure this out? I am having the same problem and it is giving me a headache....
I think I just give up with pictures.

This is usually due to people using the "copy image" and "paste image" process of inserting images which we've found to be problematic and not reliable.

Link to specific examples and we'll look into it.

What is the recommended method?

Yup, you're using the "copy/paste" method that has been shown to cause problems with some browsers. Here is the way to insert images:
