Delete personal attachments from "closed" threads
I have my gallery "Attachments" almost full and I can not delete many attachments why are inside threads "closed", there is a method to delete?

I wonder if it may be possible to embed the attachments to a closed thread thereby releasing the space for your attachments. |

Let me guess; we are all probably in the same boat...
 WinUAE beta release threads per chance?

Global Moderators can edit closed threads.
 Post links in this thread to your posts containing the attachments you wish to be removed and I or one of the other GMs can do that for you.  Edit: Meanwhile, I have moved this thread to the project.EAB forum, as suggested by DamienD above.

Yep, sorry guys but it's a task for Global Moderators
So if you wanna clean some old attachement in closed thread, just post your listing here or PM a global moderator. |

Legend!!! Many thanks DH
I'm now down to 13.72 MB used so roughly 5 MB better off (which is a lot when we're limited to 20 MB)

Your welcome guys
I had the same problem before I became a GM and the solution was exactly the same, only iirc I asked Graham Humphrey and never thought of it until seeing this thread. Glad to help |
