I uploaded some photos to my gallery recently and I accidentally uploaded some twice. Theres too many to delete one by one so is there any way to simply delete all of the photos in my gallery?
Please help me out,
Thanks,
Paul |

You can't but I usually delete any duplicates I see when I look through the gallery every day.
I deleted the 2 duplicates you did today.
If there are some specific photos you need deleted, contact me privately.
Usually I only delete stuff if there is some special reason, like people have asked me to delete photos that show their house because the house number was visible. _________________ How to Post Photos

I'd like to delete some of my pictures, didn't that used to be available as an option beside each picture in "my photos"? |

The delete link goes away after a few days so people cannot destroy things on the site.
By destroy I mean photos that are often used for thread in the Forums, we don't want those photos to go dead.
In the past several unstable members have quit the site and deleted all of their photos, which messed up tons of threads. The majority of them came back later and wanted them restored, which is not possible, so... no more permanent delete links.
Email me with what you need removed.
Most of the time there is no need for it, as I described above. _________________ How to Post Photos

OK I understand the trouble of messed up threads.
==================
Could you create a "delete" category?
I suppose if deletion is 'denied" then what?
I guess it need a 'history' so admin can send it back to the category it came from?
Just a guess.

I post technical photos and it bothers me when I publish something, fiond an error, and can't edit it (replace & delete old). _________________

There's no approval/rejection of deletions capability and honestly I probably won't do that as it would be fairly involved for something I don't think would be used a ton.
If you contact me (or hit report on your own pic) I will delete it so you can use the new one instead. _________________ How to Post Photos

FYI, don't post anything in the internet that you might regret.
The internet is forever and even if you delete it, there are servers that backup websites, such as https://archive.org/ so deleting doesn't mean it's gone forever. _________________ Glenn
