Adding images to blog entries more easily

My blog writing habits have always been pretty scattered, but one pattern that's shown itself is that I rarely have anything to say unless I have an image. The drupal template I'm working with over here on drupalcloud by default thows me at a ckeditor window, from which an image upload is several clicks away, and once I have it, it helpfully auto-fills the height and width fields, with a side effect of the image getting compressed horizontally, if the browser window is too narrow for it.

On Blogging Platforms (welcome to my new blog)

I started my livejournal in December 2002, because everyone else was doing it.  Early on, I made the specific resolutions to keep all content public (which has been violated on a few occasions, but only a few) and not to fish for discussion/controversy, and to keep it safe and clean as a real-name public presence.  Livejournal is more or less a ghost town, these days - I've been in a rut where I post infrequently, link from facebook to my livejournal posts, and let "I should really find a better blog platform" derail the impulse to post.
