a thread is closed, i cannot delete my attchments...what should i do? I have tried to manage my attachments in User CP, i can't find a way to delete them.

You can't delete attachments from a closed thread- please send me a PM with which ones you want deleted and I'll take care of them. Sorry for the inconvenience!

A small update:

I've discovered that the option to allow regular users to delete attachments in locked threads is actually listed in the usergroup permissions page, so I have now enabled that. You should now be able to free up your attachment space anytime!

Sorry, i don't clearly follow. I'm not really familiar with the technical aspects of how the forum works. What do i need to do?

After the changes I've made, the User CP attachment manager should now let you delete any and all of your attachments. Just visit: https://www.pentaxforums.com/forums/profile.php?do=editattachments

Hi Adam, Ran out of space. Read threads related to how to delete attachments / gallery photo's but am unable to get rid of them.
Most attachments are old Photo contest pictures. All of them can be removed but how...Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Bert

Contest photos also need to be deleted manually- just shoot me a PM with the ones you'd like me to take down. Have you tried using your album space in addition to attachments?

Also, if you donate, you'd get 10x the attachment space
