yes, it does.
go to your admin area, click options–>micellaneous
and click allow file uploads. that’s it.
or if you like, you can get a plugin for image gallery like lazy gallery, which is very easy to use.

I am trying with uploading in wordpress service.I upload a picture, and it gives me this:
<img src=’wp-content/ticket.JPG’ alt=’ticket’ >
I paste that into my text, and it doesn’t work. why is that?
Thanks,
<img border=”0″ src=”/wp-content/ticket.jpg” />
The correct xhtml would be:
`<img src=’wp-content/ticket.JPG’ alt=’ticket’ />
Things to check:
The file extension – is it really .JPG ? or .jpg ?
Use a full URL to the image, not a relative url. If WP is giving you that, go back to the Misc options and copy the suggested url that WP shows – it looks like you have not done that.

Well, I try <img src=’http://www.incsub.org/wpmu/cvera/images/ticket.jpg’ alt=’ticket’ />
<img src=’wp-content/ticket.jpg’ alt=’ticket’ />
They don’t work.

Well, After uploading my image,
I try <img src=’wp-content/ticket.JPG’ alt=’ticket’ />
<img src=’/wp-content/ticket.JPG’ alt=’ticket’ />
<img src=’/cvera/images/ticket.JPG’ alt=’ticket’ />
None of them work.
I don’t know where i can find the full URL. The Misc option page didn’t give me a list of files I uploaded.
Can someone help me here?
Thanks,
Go to Options, click Misc.
Second box down URI of this directory:
That has /wp-content in there ? And under it a full recommended url – copy that into the box and click Update.

sorry, but this is all i could see in the Mis page:
Miscellaneous Options
Allow File UploadsMinimum level to upload: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10
Track Links’ Update Times
Use legacy my-hacks.php file support
Is that because my service is free?–http://www.incsub.org/wpmu/cvera
Or because i am using proxy?
Thanks for your help again!!!

It could be, it could also be a wpmu problem – I don’t use wpmu so I have no idea how it is structured in the admin area.
Hi I just started using wp, and just joined this forum, but I feel it worth mentioning — what about the wp-content folder? Do you have its permissions set to 777? Does that gotta happen – or is 755 okay?
I was having the same problem of images not showing but then I just did what that other guy said and it werked.
I’m not having any luck uploading images via Ecto or MarsEdit either. Here’s my images folder:
http://70.84.25.242/~electro/blogs/wp-content/images
(don’t have my domain name server set up just yet).
At first, I wanted the images to be in the root of /blogs/, but moved it to /wp-content/ on a whim. Neither work.
What is the Destination folder all about?
Nevermind, got it working. I followed WP’s recommendation to the letter for the Destination folder and it’s working now!
Hi guys;
I also having a bit of trouble uploading photos either using ecto or the upload feature of Word Press.
At first, I would get wrong file type.
I went through and made sure the directories (what was recommended by WordPress), permissions (7777) and file types (with a space before and after) were set correctly.
Now I get:
Couldn’t upload your file to _01..
I’ve seen some references on this problem to editing the php.ini file. However. I’m using a commercial provider (SBC Yahoo) and can’t seem to find this file anywhere in my installation.
Any thoughts?

And I fixed it. This one was easy. I needed to create a tmp folder for php to work with (with 7777 permissions, of course). Hope this helps someone else. — Scott D
