  Sometimes we make an error in a post and wish to remove or edit it. Can't figure out how to do that. Is there a simple way for simple folk like me

  I've discovered you can edit a post if you do it within the first 59 minutes after to post it.  When you hover over your post you will see a little gear symbol in the upper right corner.  Click on it and a little pop up will show you how many minutes you have left to edit.  Click on the pop up and you will get the edit window.  I think that's all you can do.

  
  

  Maybe Chonk can remove something if you ask him nicely.  I don't know. :-)

  When did it stop working?  Did you try the mailbox above?

  Worked for me about a year ago.  Problem is you don't get notification that you have a message waiting.

  @Florida_bound By private they mean only the two people involved can see the messages, not that they don't show up in the "regular" forums. If I click on your name I see a list of all the messages you've sent/received going as far back as Aug 2015. Those aren't the regular forum posts that show up under Discussions/Comments.

  I did not know anyone could see those posts.  What good is that option?

  Looks like Google Photo can be used to upload and post 3rd party images, though it's slightly easier? Only thing is this board's new Add Image won't work, and the Google Image URL is LOOOOOOOOONG.
  
  PLEASE be kind and resize your photos to 640x480 before uploading. While your connection might be fast, not everyone has that luxury or they are using a smartphone/tablet and that means data usage. 45KB photos load much faster than 5MB photos, and they look the same (unless you're using it as wallpaper).
  
  Upload a few photos to Google Photos (https://photos.google.com/), then make an Album and move those photos over. Select the file you want to post in the forum, and then right-click the photo and View Image. Copy the URL (internet address).
  Figure out where you want your photo places an manually add [img][/img], click in the center and paste. Preview if wanted before posting.
  
  
  Makes an [img][/img] + https://lh3.googleusercontent.com/3A_fKs8rL75kyKIOy0vL20RErBtP2pQbsUTaIfHZsK3r4OXtXOetqLCu-G1I1VBCYMzjkXf2IrIT2FwQSRnCdka91pv1PxTmnSsu5hbD_kFPM6Yde60vxU-owW6CE7Jwg3zt_kgHyCvFQE-jOFeT88tmJddkbRNxdHNvx7iwWgUo4H9a334-OKk9q5zzq2AV4ljpQrmXaAd1oKNkfxiCAi3aoA2VZf_c5aolhnGVRw_kMelf23GUrNquG0OC90ttf1UFUIyP8eaEFQkOgyzZiDfGTBU1QvXakH0YckHcCXJ75t8BDxrUrqdLzaWRekbX5-LAlrq4dmAP8UJ2A13bmkz_liVV2E1zOGlB1RjFoAxNdr3LbYuV0eb4u69G6il3gxG53ZlQgjsc4h5vvUXOA5u9Cph0EEK5yFPQ-79R7b3Tc01NHbTn9YDsUMnC02LN33OQoXeHPjOofEsXbLOBlN7bB2sTfye0PqnflL7iQTaiVv3n21maFnix5l1THzFBF8gIeAFVhDGLjUyNPnGJxnekOracAciZlEWctD5diRj6NfGGZ8_cueUyzH_B6N3ehbugLyN8umJ4hzzX9m_DECCLkFSMcLVpJNT0niJHdX29nyWnQQzx=w1091-h614-no into a

  Scratch (or deleted) the previous post. Google Photos doesn't work reliably. Have reluctantly gone to Flikr.
  
  Should of been a photo there...
