Add remotely WordPress Posts to my blog, but how to add picture?

Question

I have this blog post on my blog:

http://lifepearls.herobo.com/2011/06/tom-hardy-is-bane/

I make posts from my php code with this:

function wpPostXMLRPC($title,$body,$rpcurl,$username,$password,$category,$keywords='',$encoding='UTF-8') {
    $title = htmlentities($title,ENT_NOQUOTES,$encoding);
    $keywords = htmlentities($keywords,ENT_NOQUOTES,$encoding);

    $content = array(
        'title'=>$title,
        'description'=>$body,
        'mt_allow_comments'=>0,  // 1 to allow comments
        'mt_allow_pings'=>0,  // 1 to allow trackbacks
        'post_type'=>'post',
        'mt_keywords'=>$keywords,
        'categories'=>array($category)
    );
    $params = array(0,$username,$password,$content,true);
    $request = xmlrpc_encode_request('metaWeblog.newPost',$params);
    $ch = curl_init();
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_POSTFIELDS, $request);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_URL, $rpcurl);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, 1);
    curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_TIMEOUT, 1);
    $results = curl_exec($ch);
    curl_close($ch);
    return $results;

}

However, I dont know how to add the image, and what field.

Here is the image from the dashboard for the image:

This is the manual way to add my image to the post, since it is a part of the specific template.

How do I add my image remotely, any idea?

if you have FTP access to the site, you could upload the image, then make use of this plugin to automatically create the media item. http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/auto-post-images-api/. in fact, you could probably look at the shortcode action to see how that plugin works for a better idea — smcphill, Jun 23 '11 at 17:36

We've created a plugin ( WP Remote Connections ) that can send posts, pages, and media from one WordPress installation to one or many other WordPress :) It might be what you are looking for.

The MetaWebLog API has no ways to transmit images or other resources. You're lost, except you transfer the images via ftp/sftp and just <img>-include them.
