This is just a test.  I haven't been able to post anything.

That worked.  Maybe it has to do with photos.  Couldn't make a post with pictures attached.

You don't want to attach photos, upload them to your gallery here and then post links - much better viewing experience for the rest of us and the site will size them automatically.  If you don't still have the welcome email I sent you with the links, here is another http://classicaquasport.com/smf/index.php?topic=12725.0  it's very simple to do.  Attachments are limited to size, so that is why you had problems.  You can upload any size pic to your gallery and the site will deal with it.

Yes, thank you.  I found that and figured out it was my file size. I posted some pics to the gallery.  For some reason, 3 of the pictures ended up sideways so I am trying to delete them now, but cant figure it out.  I cant find a delete button.  Is there some other way?  Thanks for your help.

I am a wreck.  I figured out how to rotate them, but am still curious about deleting photos.

If you can rotate then you have discovered the "Edit" button.

Go to your Gallery.
Click on the photo you wish to edit.
Once the photo comes up, click on the edit option to the right of the photo.
Scroll to the bottom of the edit page (past the rotate options) and notice what the very last thing is that you can do.
Check the box and don't forget the reminder....once it's gone it's gone (until you reload it again).

Good luck.

The pics come in sideways because you take the pic with your phone vertically.  Your phone is smart enough to turn it so you can see it but the pic is still in the wrong orientation. You should take pics with your phone like you would a camera - horizontal with lens to the left.  Then they appear correct.  I can delete the pics you want deleted, let me know which ones.

If one can figure out how to rotate then one can also delete. All on the same page. Just scroll down a little further.
