Deleting Photos

John Hayes

Why does it take so long for my images to go away after I delete them!...Getting sick of this crap.


This isn't a new problem, I have had my smug account for almost a year and this has happened several times through out that year.

If it isn't one thing it's another, getting frustrated.

Hi John, can you link us to a photo that's lingering past it's time?

It happend to me all the time. The photo is eventually deleted, but the photo caption stays in Smugmug for ever. Also Google indexes my deleted photos:
Just a few examples of photos deleted many months ago:

Andy, they eventually get deleted. It is just some times you have to wait several minutes for it to finally go away and it won't allow you to upload a new edited image, it says file already exists.

Thanks for looking into it.

Have you thought about using "Replace Photo" to upload the edited images?
