You don't. Edit is what is required, and that is only available (ever notice the edit button?) for like 24 hours from original posting
Any further deletions / editing are in the owner's or his staff's purview - and good luck on that

He was talking about photos, not posts, and I have noticed the same thing. Have a few old ones, they just get in the way, wouldn't mind removing them but see no way to do that.You don't.

Here is a screen shot suggesting the possibility of deleting photos from your album - if that is where they are
I have not tried this to see if it actually works

Ah. That would seem to be an advantage of using the "albums" feature. Don't know about CalG but I just add photos from the 'advanced edit' dropdown, they aren't in an album, and I don't see any way to delete those

Another screen shot for Settings - Attachments
If you check the open box, go to bottom of page, click on Delete Selected, you get rid of that one - supposedly. As can be seen, this file can get out of hand - like way too many
Not tried this myself - not sure at all what happens to your post(s) with that image - does it (the image) just disappear?

You are welcome - de be aware it removes image from wherever it is posted - like Post #7
John
Your help is appreciated.
Removing pics from the posts works fine, it didn't appear to take them out of the home folder however.
Removing uploaded pics from the attachments /home folder is what I'm after. That panel is getting cluttered.
. The pics can be selected from the home folder to be placed into any post, but there does not appear to be a "remove from folder /put in trash function.
If you see a way........

I did not do but the one - illustrated in Post #7. That file is now gone from the long list illustrated in Post #6 - so I tend to assume it DOES remove them from home or attachment list

I have two of the same pics in the home folder that are up side down and I can't delete them.
Deleting them like in post #6 does NOT delete it in the home folder.
Does anyone know how to do this?

When I had put 50 photos in my album it wouldn't let me post any more full size pictures.
So I deleted one like John did and it did remove the photo from my album and old post.
Is there a way to post more than 50 full size photos without having to delete some to make room?
