Any registered user can start a new handbook page.


Only those with Site-Maintainer role can upload files/images to a page.
 Upload module has site wide permissions so granting book maintainer
role upload permission would be granting them upload permission across
drupal.org.


If you need/want to include images with a page, create you page. 
Submit a documentation issue with the attached images and a request for
them to be added to the page.


Keep in mind that the current site theme has issues with large images
that do not fit between two columns so keep images small.

I've not been able to find anything in the handbooks on how to set up
drupal to put images within nodes -- the way you would on a plain web
page.


Searching the forum has yielded a few interesting threads:
http://drupal.org/node/113813
http://drupal.org/node/107622


-- but these suggest several different approaches, don't fully explain
the options and benefits, and don't have complete instructions.


This seems to be a common need that isn't documented.

Try:
http://drupal.org/node/762, Screenshots and uploading images. I updated
the title (it's been on my to-do list) to include the word images. This
page addresses how to add them inline to drupal.org handbook
documentation pages. Getting them on pages of your own Drupal-powered
web site is another Q...

Thanks.
But I don't see where that page says how to upload an image.


The scenario is this: users of the drupal site I am setting up will
need to be able to upload images to the webserver and then embed them in
page text, all via drupal.


I've done a fair bit of research on this over the last couple of days,
and I'm going to be trying out a few combinations.
If I can figure out how to start a new handbook page to share what I
find, I will.


BTW, are there any plans to put image handling into core?
