Have you filled out the “alt” tags properly. The chances of being indexed are less if the tag is not included. Additionally, the file name for the image should not be “quor7b.jpg” unless it’s a photo of a Quor7b. The file name should also reflect the image (e.g. rose.jpg).
Well one photo can be assigned as the thumbnail as you can see in the post editor screen. Otherwise as the comment above suggested create a post meta field for example ‘my_post_image’ and place the id of the image attachment in that field. That is how WordPress saves the post thumbnail (look in the database, … Read more
Finally, I’ve got it! Sniffing the HTTP resonses indicated that a few extra bytes were being inserted between the headers and body of the http response, resulting in bad image data. Further investigation revealed that these characters represent a Unicode Byte Order Mark (BOM). These, in turn, were caused by a Windows editor that saved … Read more

You will then need to edit the anchor for … Read more
You would have to create custom templates, but your reference page is fully achievable using the NextGen Gallery plugin.

In your functions.php file, you need to define $content_width, which will cause WordPress to scale large-size images, and also embedded videos, accordingly. e.g. if the width of your content area is 600px: if ( ! isset( $content_width ) ) { $content_width = 600; } You will probably also want to add accompanying CSS, e.g.: #content … Read more
