I have problems loading large images so I would like to try to remove an image and repost the larger version. How do I do this -do I have to wait the 48 hours?
Thanks in advance.

Until someone comments on your image you can delete it. The delete/edit option is under the thumbnail. You can repost without waiting the 48 hrs. I don't think you can delete just the large version, although I've never tried it. What problems are you having loading the larger files?

Lindy,

Images uploaded to NPN's server for display must be 200 KB or less, and sized to a maximum of 720px on the long side. Files that do not meet these specs will not be uploaded.

You can find more info in the 'featured' topic, "Help-Processing for posting on NPN" at the top of this page. Here is a link to the NPN Posting Guidelines that may be of help to you.

I too, am curious as to what problems you are having.

Thanks for the input. When I go to locate the larger image my computer says file not found, even though I just clicked on it. I also can not find a way to reload the larger image so I will try it again after the 48. Thankfully, I did get the repost on the original photo (without the larger image upload)
Thanks

Sounds like you are having computer problems! Better run some diagnostic programs and virus checkers before your problem snowballs! Good Luck!

This sounds a lot like a problem discussed here recently.

You can only upload the larger image if you also upload the smaller image - you cannot upload a larger image alone. If you leave the smaller image box unselected then that is the image that your browser cannot locate.

The smaller image is required; the larger image is optional.
