    I have been using Windows Live Writer since its first beta, now I have a problem with the last version.

    I use Blogger platform and publish on a custom domain. When I add a picture to a post, WLW doesn't upload its thumbnail image to my Picasa account, therefore the thumbnails don't show up on my blog. But when I click on them the image displays correctly so there is a problem with only the thumbnail images.

    When I check the html code of the post, I realized that it was pointing to my local disk as the thumbnail source. I think it stays the same when posting too. Here's an example:

    <a href="$example[2].jpg"><IMG style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px" originalAttribute="href" originalPath="$example[2].jpg"><IMG style="BORDER-BOTTOM: 0px; BORDER-LEFT: 0px; DISPLAY: inline; BORDER-TOP: 0px; BORDER-RIGHT: 0px" title=example border=0 alt=turkcell src="file:///C:/Temp/WindowsLiveWriter-429641856/supfiles8DECD/example_thumb.jpg" width=244 height=192></a>

    I tried changing TEMP directory to C:\Temp but it didn't work.

    I am using Windows XP Turkish with SP3.

    Did you copy/paste the image while you were editing it in WLW?  Are all images having this problem(can you do a new test post with one image?), or only images from one specific post?

    I have tested several times on different posts with different pictures. All have this problem. I didn't copy/paste, I added them using the Add section on the sidebar.

    And just to be clear, the html above was actually published to your blog, or you just found that inside WLW?

    It was inside WLW.

    I just tried posting to another blog and it worked correctly! Obviously there is a problem with my blog. I will try re-importing it into WLW.
