I use Wp 2.0 and the default theme.
You can do it manually, like so
1) Admin >> Write >> Post you want an image to display
2) insert: <
img src="your domain.com / absolute path to image on your server" alt="Description of image" border="0" height="100px" width="100px" /
> where you want the image to appear within your Post content.
You may have to generate a class (.classname) for the image if you want styling to show, or margin padding, float:left or float:right, etc…

ANYBODY any idea? Please – I am slowly going nuts over this…
Did you use an absolute image path?
http ://www.yourdomainname.com/path to images folder/nameofpiccy.jpg
?
I’ve noticed sometimes that if you don’t use absolute path inside the Post, sometimes it doesn’t work. It will produce a red X in the tiny box to suggest that an image lives there.
Sometimes, though, it works with relative paths ie: /images/imagename.jpg
Here’s a suggestion. Type the absolute path that leads to your image in a browser window (try IE). By rights it should come up and show you the picture. If it doesn’t then you definately have the wrong path to the image.
Edit: Space deliberately left so the url doesn’t become a hyperlink (yes, it was wrapped in < code >
and backticks used :0 )`
