This is retarded. I've been here 10.5 years and am expected to delete my pictures to below 1000? The process for this is tedious and time consuming. I'm down to 1200 I think but I just don't have time to do this.
There are work arounds. I just posted a pic using Imgur. Still seems to work. I hope people don't start deleting attachments as I'm afraid that will delete them from the thread. On the some threads that would probably be ok, but on some that are archival, like the Bob Cargill Cripple Creek thread, it would be a true shame.
P.S. we have three threads going on this. One would probably suffice, eh?
I really don't want to use a photo hosting site like Imgur, it is so easy to post photos from my desktop.There are work arounds. I just posted a pic using Imgur. Still seems to work.

I only have one image in the exchange.Spark was recently asking for input on removing old images from the Exchange to clear server space. Perhaps it was recognized that having us clear our own attachments is a reasonable alternative.
I was just reading in the guidelines area that when we copy and paste someone else's post, the images that are included in the quote count towards our limit.
I just checked, you are correct. I misread Blues post, he was just asking members to delete irrelevant material from quotes prior to posting,I don’t think that’s true. I quote people’s photos all the time, and my attachment count is 0. (I use Imgur for my own pics.)
This^^^. Spark and the mods are pretty good about giving us a heads up on stuff. I'm not deleting anything either and will wait to post in the usual picture threads until there's some resolution. I'm not gonna go back to Imgur either as I much prefer posting pics directly and keep running into too much sophomoric, ignorantly biased crap at that hosting site anyway.Let's give Spark and the powers that be a little time to look into it and address it before you go off over it.
I would venture to guess it's a glitch. Spark's always good about posting changes and I can't see this being a choice to inact with no upfront notice.
As a few said I wouldn't get crazy and delete pictures just yet.
