 * Hi,
 * When a user clicks on media while creating/editing a post he gets 3 options
 * 1) Insert media
    2) Create Gallery 3) Set featured image 4) Insert from url
 * Can you please let me know how I can remove the first option “Insert media” **
   as I want all users to upload their images only to gallery.**
 * Also, will it have any problems by removing “Insert media” link.
 * 2) Is it possible to show some type of icon to users that the images are getting
   uploaded. Currently, there is no icon which shows that images are getting uploaded.

 * I would also like to know why the images are not shown properly in the slide 
   show.
 * I mean, in the slide show of the post “ride to kotilingeshwara”, the 4th, 5th,
   7th images are not shown completely.
