Don’t insert the picture in the post, just include the link in the custom field.
not sure if that would solve your problem.
Please post back to let me know that it worked for you. Arras is a cool theme but I am having issues with the side bar layout (going crazy on me), till I get this solved I will activate it on my site.
Also did you figure out how to change the size of the top (slide show)? once I switched layout to two sidebars, the slider over laps. If you figured that one out please post it here.
also what would you do if you don’t have a picture for your post? is there any way to get rid of the (x) next to the post name
thank you

Answer found at found this at http://code.google.com/p/arras-theme/updates/list and it worked
open css file located
“..//wp-content/themes/arras-theme/css/styles/default.css”
and change
“.single .post .entry-photo, .single-post .entry-photo”
to “{display:none}”
