Click the image.

A row of icons will appear at the top of the image for you to choose from: Align, Edit or Delete.

To delete or remove the image, click the "X" icon.

Instantly the image or picture disappears.

If you want to replace it with a new image, you click "Add Media".

But the new Blogger interface, you could not find the "Delete icon" ("X").

Now when you click the image, you can only see these six options: Align left, Align center, Align right, Image size, Toggle caption and Change.

Unfortunately, there is NO Delete icon any more.
