Everyone,
Some people have asked about modifying posts, and here are some notes on the subject.

Every time you post, you have the option of going back into that post to modify (edit) it.  Just go into the discussion and scroll to your post.  You will see the "Modify" option, as shown in the screen shot below:
[attachimg=1]

When you use the "Modify" option, you can edit the following details:
  • Subject
  • Message icon
  • The text portion of your posts
  • The list of attachments
  • All other "Additional Options"

If you want to add another attachment to your discussion, sometimes it is better to use the "Modify" option rather than writing another post.  That depends on the circumstances, of course, but it is an option for you.

Keep in mind that when you submit an edit, the date and time of the last change is stamped at the bottom of the post.  You can see this by looking at the bottom of this very post!

Is there a way to delete your own post?  I ended up with "extras" when I was attaching pics, but couldn't find a way to delete the unwanted ones.

Yes, I just activated this option today.  Members now are able to delete (remove) their own posts.  The option for removing your post is located to the right of the "modify" option.

Use it wisely!
