Hi Darren
These are the steps for adding a picture to the 'about you' section of your page:
Before you start the picture needs to be on the internet already, such as inside a picasa/flickr gallery, or part of your own website.
To add a picture click the insert picture icon in the tool bar.
Then in the box that pops up you need to enter (or copy paste) the URL (internet address) of the picture.
The easiest way to get this address is to right click on the picture you want to add and from the menu and choose ‘properties’, you can then copy the URL of the picture by selecting it, and then paste it into the Image URL
Once you’ve entered the image URL click in the Image description field, your’ll see a preview of your image in the box.
When you are happy with it, and you’ve added an image description and title if application click Insert and your picture will be added.
You can adjust the size of the image on the appearance tab if you need to, you can also choose how it appears within your text, add space around the picture, a border, or add CSS styles to the image too.
If you try the above and are still having issues let us know. If you can try adding the picture and post a link to your page, along with which web browser you're using and I can take a look to see why its not displaying.
