Removing Images on blog page

    HI Support:

    On Saturday, 11/10/2003, I put some images in my blog, but here is the problem:

    I went to my WordPress Dashboard, and added some images from the internet (pictures of bass fish, free downloads that don’t have any copyrights on them). If you go to https://www.bigger-bass-e-book.com/blog, you will see that there are 2 pictures at the top which I removed, but they still have the blank box with the first one saying “Hooking a Bass Fish,” and the second one saying “Bass Fish Swimming.”

    What I did to Delete these is to go to my WordPress Dashboard, went to Manage tab, and then went to Uploads under this tab, and clicked on the images (I had three) one at a time, and then chose Delete for each one. I then went back to my View Site, and got these blank boxes at the top.

    Is there any way to remove these so that I can get the text questions at the top like I had before I put these pictures in.

    What I wanted to do was to have a background image of a bass fish or fishes or someone fishing for this page, rather than just the white background.

    I typed in a Google Search, free background or wallpaper pictures of fishing, free background images or wallpaper of fishing, and I guess that a background will only work on a WordPress Page if I upgrade to the Custom CSS Upgrade (information on this at the FAQ Section at https://faq.wordpress.com/).

    I even went to the View Site Tab at https://bigger-bass-e-book.com/blog/wp-admin/ and tried to choose Edit for each picture (where it says Posted in Fishing Tips Edit No Comments below each of the two pictures at the top.

    I chose the Edit choice, then went into the Code Tab, and highlighted the Code and hit the Delete Key on my computer keyboard, then chose Save and then the Publish button, but I still get the pictures anyway at the top.

    I’m finding that for me this is a user-unfriendly program (WordPress) – UGH, UGH, UGH!!! I know it is WYSIWYG Program, but why is it so hard to even get these images removed?

    Do you know a way to get a background image or wallpaper into one of these pages without getting the Custom CSS Upgrade?

    If not, do you know how much this upgrade is? I cannot seem to find the price anywhere?

    Thank you,

    Jon Lutz

  • It appears you have a couple posts at the top of your home page that do not sport titles but do still have links to image attachment pages (that is, the images you deleted). You can edit those posts, or delete them, under Manage > Posts.

    The site faq.wordpress.com mainly covers topics related to having a blog on wordpress.COM. Right now you are at www.remarpro.com, where we deal with the self-hosted version of WordPress.
