It's that easy and doesn't require any tags.

How to add Images or Pictures in Blogger Comments

If you need to add any image or picture in your Blogger comment, we will need to use the tags below BEFORE and AFTER the address of your image:

Note: replace your-image-url text with the URL of the image you want to share. For more help on how to find the URL of an image, please read this tutorial: How to Get the URL of Images.

Let your visitors know how to insert Videos/Images above Blogger Comment Box

Many visitors coming to your site may not know that they can post videos or images in Blogger comments, so it's recommended to add a short message telling them how to do that. Just access your Blogger Dashboard, go to 'Settings' > 'Posts, Comments and Sharing' and look for the 'Comment Form Message' section - here you need to click on "Add" link and add your text. For example:
Do you have any pic to share? Use this code <b>[img]image-url-here[/img]</b>
After you have added your text, click the 'Save Settings' button at the top right corner... and we're done.

  6. Ah, works great. Thanks! Another way (perhaps a simpler one) to disable threaded comments is to basically just make sure your Blog Feed isn't set to "Full".

    "If you have commenting enabled on your blog, then threaded commenting will work provided you have your blog feed set to "Full," and have chosen the “Embedded" option as opposed to “Full page” or “Popup window.” To change your commenting settings, just go to the Comments section under Settings | Posts and comments. The setting to change your blog feed can be found under Settings | Other."

  17. I get a broken image icon and can only view the image if I right-click and View Image (Firefox 31.0).

    I also see Google has its usual disinterest in answering users' questions.
