In the past, I uploaded some large files. NAM seems to keep both the large file and also a small web-friendly version that I use for posting.

In order to preserve my precious space in my gallery, is there a way to delete only the large file or do I have to delete and reload?

I am afraid that if I delete everything and then reload, any thread where I posted the pic will end up with the red x of death and I hate it when I find threads wit pics that don't show up. . .

 

When you delete you will delete both the large and the small.

If you want to have only a smaller version of the same photo, you will need to delete the current one from your gallery and then upload a new file (with the same file name you uploaded originally) to your gallery.

When you check the filename in your gallery remember that NAM automatically adds in your username digits at the beginning of the filename on upload, so you don't need to have that part in the filename you upload. (make sense?).

If you just start uploading replacement files without first deleting the files already hosted, NAM will automatically give the uploaded file a new file name extension by adding a 1 to the name, so your links won't work. Again, you need to delete, then upload new with the same name.

 

Thanks Dave, I think that makes sense and I can manage my gallery without messing up all the links in a couple years of threads. . .
