How to Delete Photo "files" from the File Upload Manager?

[Wagriff]

Just a quick question for Dimas or one of the other tech savvy people...How do you delete an older photo from your "File Upload Manager"? This is the "upper box" of the 2 when you upload a new photo to one of your albums. Editing the Album itself is no problem, but I happened to notice that the "Upload File Manager" had several pages of previously uploaded photos in it and there seems to be no option of emptying it of any. Is there a way to prune down the number of uploaded photos? If there is, I guess I'm just not seeing it.

Hello William,
I am not sure, but i believe any photos that are not posted on threads will be automatically deleted after 1 hour. Any that are posted on threads will be removed from threads if they are deleted.
Hope this helps,

Yes, I believe that Ralph is correct here William. Be careful deleting any images as they are then removed from the thread. Ultimately, the forum loses a little every time somebody does this. I actually did it a while ago, and didn't realise the implications at the time. Thenceforth, no deleting.

Regards,

Carl

I think it was member Grimebox that deleted nearly all his photos on his escape and evasion thread in this manner and it took him a long time to re photograph and upload all his stuff again. Be careful!
I believe what you are seeing is the total of your uploaded photos stored on the server, not your pc, so if you delete them there, they will disappear from your threads.

Best Regards,

Yes, I remember Grimebox's fiasco-I think I heard the sudden horrified shriek when it happened even over Here! I always wondered if he ever did replace the window he broke when he threw his computer through it....lol

Than is 100% accurate, unless admins denied removing for a particular usergroups
