Wordpress/Hosting Noob Question

I've got an experimental wordpress site. Now I've got a theme installed for it. You can easily customize the theme by a little panel custom built by publishers of the theme. Now when I go to upload an image from my computer or web address, the preview bit under it shows a broken image and "alt="

I realized then that this was because I hadn't uploaded the images to my host. Now the problem lies here. Which directory do I upload the images into?

Thanks.

    Ewan,
    You should upload your image to the Media Library in your wordpress back office. From there you can install it into your blog when ever you need it. I always do it this way.
    Hope this helps.
    Let me know if you need any more help.
    Regards

    If Image Upload Creates problem then its bettre to upload the image in wp-content/uploads and directly use the image link to the post or places where you want.

    Thanks
