I've given up trying to post photos from my phone because they inevitably come out upside down.

if I am trying to load a picture from my phone and it doesn't load I just take a screen shot of the picture on my phone then load the screen shot .. works every time.. the screen shot is just a smaller file size.... hope that helps (thumbs)

You can also resize photos in Microsoft Paint too.

I use Paint.Net for photo editing which is good for making all kinds of tweeks, and it's a free download.

Or just upload pics to Flickr then copy and paste the links. Much easier, and readers don't need to click each "attached" pic to look at it as it shows the full size pic in the post.

It depends where the upload goes wrong. If the picture location appears in the "add file" box when you select it but it doesn't upload, one of your browser settings may be preventing the upload. You could try clearing all your browser records (history, cookies etc etc).

If nothing appears in the "add file" box when you select a picture it may be a fault with the browser itself so you could try another (I swapped from Firefox to Chrome but others have been ok with Firefox).

A long shot but your firewall may be protecting you in the background by preventing your personal information uploading to the web.
