Messing with code I don’t understand would screw up my entire blog not just the image uploader.

I feel your pain grhb. Same here, the 2.5 is a pain. Try Windows Live Writer. It will plug into your blog and you can draft posts and add images there with no problems. Hit publish and it will post to your blog. Useful for backup too. The posts can then be tweaked with the wordpress editor but at least the images are there.

I don’t think you’re doing anything wrong orfilms. I have the exact same issue. I enter the image just as you described and nothing happens. There’s no error message as others describe just zilch. Luckily I discovered Windows Live writer recently and it’s plugged into the blog as an alternate editor. When I load images into my drafts and then publish them to the blog they show up in the media library but I can’t edit them. I look in the media library and hit the Show button and nothing happens. I hope they fix this as the new media features are inoperable. thank heavens for Live Writer.
