James, thanks, that''s a great start. But, will there ever be a way to completely delete an upload from the site? Also, nothing has happened to the rejected uploads.

Also, if you inactivate a picture and remove it from your MyUploads, it stays inactive.

I made some changes so that "No Image Available" is displayed if the picture is made inactive.

grzzman13, if you know the picture ID of the pic you "removed," punch it in and you''ll see that the pic is still there.

I did the same thing ir5ac said works for him & my upload is completely gone as far as I can tell..

you have good points all. Ignoring the risks of posting pictures to the entire planet via the www, the fine print at the uploads page might need an update.

I agree with mgag. The 'remove' check box lets you believe that the photo will be gone from the site, but that's not the truth.
If there is no way for a user to delete their own upload, at least it should say so when you upload a picture.

no idea. not a lawyer.

ir5ac, all that does is release ownership of the picture you uploaded. Then, someone else can claim control over your picture. If you do that to an approved pic, it automatically reactivates as well. This is the complete opposite of what should happen and is very misleading. It should say "release ownership" if they want that functionality. There NEEDS to be a "Remove Picture" option that completely deletes the picture from the website.

check remove next to the picture and then at the top of the my uploads page click "update my uploads". works for me.

I agree. I never would have uploaded anything if I'd known I wasn't in control of removing it.

I'll consider posting a pic of myself only after PTH fixes this bug.

This needs to be addressed. A user needs to have the ability to delete a photo they added from the site completely. If most users knew there was no way to remove a photo once it was put up, they would be wary of uploading.

I'm sure it is quite a job to review all these pics and make a "yes or no" decision on what is and what is not. "But someone has to do it"............I enjoy your site and it appears from Forum comments like in this section you simply can't keep up. I too, was looking to delete couple rejected photos of my "friend" (F35VO- porfessional photo / model) and see the delete option is not available, now. BTW, you just approved a second photo of her (6CSXW), thanks.........and she says thanks for thinking she is a model, which she is not; but she continues to enjoy the site.

James makes those fixes and he hasn't had time recently, hopefully soon.

I don't understand why a pic is not removed from the system once it is rejected for whatever reason. Something a mod should do especially since the "remove a hottie" link vanished.

What's up with that mods?

Yes. I would like to delete uploads from the site as well. What gives? Even the "Remove a Hottie" link in the FAQ is a broken link.
