Comment (by Workshopshed):

 The 0.5 version does not import images. The 0.6 version attached to this
 ticket does import images although is a beta and has known issues.

 What it does is to scan your post content for images with HTML tags of the
 form

 <a href="xxx"><img src="yyy"></a> or just <img src="yyy">

 then downloads the images from those locations. These are uploaded to your
 site's host in the same way that a manually attached image would be
 processed.

 A good point that the readme for the beta version needs to be updated.

 You should raise your question about importing from Wordpress.com to the
 [http://wordpress.org/extend/plugins/wordpress-importer/ Wordpress
 Importer] this ticket is specifically about the Blogger Importer.
