Before you start using Windows live writer, I certainly heard about the glitchiness of this blog client. But still it seemed to me quite comfortable, despite its limitations. At least, it is much more convenient to work with images in it than with standard tools and any WordPress plugins. Everything went well until I decided to write to my first blog on lifejournal.com. The trouble is that the Windows live writer image is inserted and where it is necessary on lifejournal.com and plus replaced the images in some old blog posts on Wordpress. I'd rather use Semagic for the livegener as well. In general, I will look for others, but the same free alternatives.
