Freedback: ecto and WordPress.com

Here’s a really interesting bug (?) that I’ve noticed and haven’t been able to work around: Every time I post a picture to my WordPress.com blog from within ecto, it starts out okay. The picture displays, is hosted on the server, no problem. Then, after some amount of time, I’ll visit the blog and I’ll get the alternate text instead of the picture. Sometimes this occurs after I update a post (from ecto), sometimes it happens on its own. But then, after another length of time, the picture reappears. I’m not messing with these settings, I’m not logging in and editing the post from the dashboard. The pictures just disappear and reappear on their own.

Am I doing something wrong? Is it a setting or something else that’s obvious but I’m missing?
