How do you remove pictures from your attachment area?

[franco-bolli]

I'm starting a new thread for this, the last one I posted in had a misleading title. I've search for answers to remove the pictures, but either folks never get to their limit or only include links to images.

I have imported too many pictures and posted them in forums. Now I am reaching my total picture limit as seen in my profile area.

How do I remove pictures from the attachments area of my profile or from the posts that are no longer useful / relevant?

Thanks for your replies!!

I think I understand what you're looking for, now. Click on your icon in the top, right corner. Select "My Attachments", delete away.

Hmm,

I must be missing something.

There is no delete button on the "my attachments" page, at least for me there isn't.

If I right click on the picture, it pops up the picture in an editable window.

If I right click on the words just to the right of the picture, I get a download dialog window.

If I right click on the title of the Thread at the far right of the screen, it takes me to that Thread.

If I left click on any of the above, I get the standard windows menu dialog box.  
No delete in sight.

Maybe I don't have erase rights?

I've been using computers since before Windows was an OS.. this interaction with erasing pictures has me stumped. I'm sure it's something simple.

I'd put a picture of what I'm seeing when viewing "my attachments" in this thread, but I'd be over my allotment.

Same for me franco.  However, if you click on the right side and open the thread, you can then edit the post.  While editing the post, you can remove the attachment at the bottom.  It's a convoluted way of doing it, but it works.

Most of us just store our pictures on one of the free online photo storage places and then use a link to the stored picture. That way the actual picture isn't on the email servers and so storage space isn't a problem.

Yah, the size limit is the reason we've never used the on-site storage.
