How do I edit my attachments on this forum? They are building up and I don't see how to erase some of them to make space for future ones?

You have to delete them, which disapears them from the associated posts. Once my attachment limit was reached, I just swcitched to posting my pics in-line. It's much better this way anyhow.

If you're interested in posting them in-line, just get one of those free photo hosting accounts (I use www.flicker.com (http://www.flicker.com) ). Every time you want to post a pic, just upload it to flicker, then cut and paste the picture's location into the post using the "insert image" icon (the little sun rising over the mountains).

I try to re-size my photos to 640x480 before uploading them to flickr. that seems to be the perfect size for in-line posting.


This post (http://www.roversnorth.com/forums/showthread.php?t=2895)by Thompson does a much better job explaining in-line posting that I just did.

Google images is also a good source for a plethora of rover related and relevant images.

Hit "User CP" in the maroon (or burgandy, if you're fancy) bar near the top of this page.

In the menu box an the left side of the page that pops up, selcet "Attachments" at the very bottom.

Check off the attachments you want to delete in the right-most side of the chart.

Hit the "Delete Selected" button at the very bottom right of the chart.
