    how to delete files(photos) from my attachments?

    I couldn't figure this out at gunpoint.
    I have lots of old photos I'll never post again to wade through in my attachments file. I'd like to delete some of them which would also seem to free up some srver space.
    Thanks in advance

    Look under SETTINGS which is visible at any screen. Locate MISCELLANEOUS > ATTACHMENTS.

    Before you do some heavy housecleaning, give thought as to whether the images will be helpful to others in the future.

    Thanks but that only deletes a picture posted in a thread. I tried by deleting one as you suggested but the file persists in attachments "library" which is what I'm trying to cull.
    Other ideas?

    When I checked the DELETE box in the 'ATTACHMENT POSTED by MauiM3Mania' screen and hit DELETE, the listing of the post which had the image is gone. The statement at the top of the page, "You are currently using XX.XX MB to store XXX number of uploaded attachments." also dropped by one image and ~22K in size.

    Help me out here... I'm not seeing/do not have an attachment library. Where are you seeing that?
