[motm] Old outdated files should be removed from files section

[motm] Old outdated files should be removed from files section

2006-04-06 by Kenneth Elhardt

As I was sifting through the files section for this group tyring to find the
latest demos I noticed a lot of old outdated stuff that's no longer of
interest.  Everything from the Kurzweil Expressionmate Sam Ash blowout 5
years ago, to proposals of what the 450 should look like and more.  Perhaps
those who posted them can delete them to help eliminate the mess and make it
faster and easier to find new stuff.  I stared by deleting my textured paint
case picture.

In the spirit of being a good MOTMizer  I have tried to remove an old  
photo I posted aboot 8 months ago but I am unable.  After a certain  
time, the privilege seems to be removed from the poster to the  
administrator.

So someone feel free to erase the snap of my MOTM behind my acoustic  
drums but leave the recent photo of my sexy multi-coloured mult and  
side panels!

I'd love to delete the Expressionmate notice, but I originally posted
it from an email account I no longer have, so it won't let me. If the
list administrator could do it for me, that would relieve my guilt<g>.

Same here. I think the change occurred when Yahoo updated their photos 
to the new format. I've created new photo albums on other groups and I 
can delete. However, on every group I am subscribed to and have posted 
photos, I am unable to delete photos that were on the group when they 
converted.

I found that I could delete the entire photo folder. I did so and 
replaced it with a new photo album that I can edit and delete from.

If you didn't change your internet service, you should be able to delete it.
My picture was posted in 2003 and I was able to delete it.  I saw three
words written in blue to the right of the text to my picture which said
something like "edit, delete, ...".  Can't remember the third word.  Just
mentioning this incase you or others didn't look in the right place.
