tab: Settings / General, it is possible to select "Editor updated" to see a more powerful editor, especially for images.
Enhanced Image Processing
When you import an image into the new post editor, it appears as a thumbnail in the dialog . In this way, you can upload multiple images at once and add them to your message as you wish. The miniatures are available until you close the message editor. When you add an image of the dialog box to your message, it is placed at the insertion point not in the message header.
If you want to change the location of an image in your message, you can drag to the desired location . If you move to the left side of the editor, it will float to the left, and it will be the same for the right. If you drop it in the center, it will be centered. You can move the image between paragraphs and other block elements. Unlike the current publisher, the new editor lets you move images while maintaining the link to their full size version. You can easily resize or delete an image using the balloon image resizing. Click on the image (or double-click to users of Firefox 3) to show the tooltip immediately and resize the image. You can resize any image, including those added by URL, but if you resize an image that has been uploaded via the post editor, we rééchantillonnons on our servers to limit the download size.
