Blogger initiated advertising isn't allowed here on WordPress.com except for a few, very narrow exceptions. If you need clarification, here is the policy on advertising http://en.support.wordpress.com/advertising/ and here is the ToS http://en.wordpress.com/tos/

I posted a picture on my blog, as an advertisement.
