"From Google Album Archive" is one of six ways to add images to your blog from "Add Images." (You get "Add images" when you click the Insert Image tool in Blogger's editing window.)
Update: The user interface has changed, so my screen shots and step-by-steps are no longer 100% valid. This option is now a sub option under "Blogger."
The top row in this view shows four of the albums in my album archive, including one for this blog.
Adding an image from "Blogger" lets you insert images you've previously added
to your blog, or any other blog where your account has author privileges.

| "Blogger" lets you reuse any image you've already added to Blogger. |
It's one of four options you'll see once you click the Insert Image tool in Blogger's editing window.
Picture are great, and you can add them right into your blog from Blogger's edit window.
"Upload" lets you import an image from your computer or other device.
