I don't have an image provider
When you view a blog post in a Web browser, the picture appears on the Web page, but it is not contained in the same file as the text of the post. Instead, the picture is stored as a file on a Web server, and the blog post uses Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) to specify the Web address (URL) of the picture.
Your blog service provider may be able to automate the process of including pictures in your blog, but not all blog service providers include this service. Contact your blog service provider to determine whether they can also serve as your picture provider.
If your blog service provider cannot serve as your picture provider, you can still include pictures in your blog, but you need to use an image-hosting service as a picture provider. The Web has many free image-hosting services available, as well as premium services available for a fee. For example, you can try Flickr, Photobucket, Image Station, or IMGSpot.
Be aware of any terms and conditions of the service that you choose. For example, free services can enforce restrictions or limitations such as a maximum size of files, total amount of storage, or allowable file formats.
Note If your pictures are already uploaded on a Web server, make sure that they are available to the public before you include them in your blog.

My image provider isn't listed
- If your blog service provider can serve as your picture provider, select My blog provider (or, for Windows SharePoint Services, select SharePoint blog) in the Picture Provider list. If you are using a provider other than your blog service provider, select My own server.
Note If you don't want to include pictures in your blog posts for this blog account, select None - Don't upload pictures.
- If you selected My own server in step 1, type the URLs for uploading and for displaying images.
In the Upload URL box, type the address that you use to upload pictures to your picture provider's server. This can be an FTP or HTTP address, depending on the server configuration. Contact the provider of your picture-hosting service if you need help determining the address to use.
In the Source URL box, type the HTTP address that is used to display the pictures. The blog post will use this address as part of the IMG tag in the HTML of the blog post files.
