If I delete photos from media library are they deleted from blog?

  • jenireland · Member ·

    After using google blog for a year I emptied my picasa albums not realizing I would delete all my photos on blog too…ugh….thought I’d try wordpress. I currently upload pics off my camera to windows live photo gallery–ultimately also put on smugmug.
    1) If I upload pics to media library on wordpress do I leave them in there forever so they won’t get deleted off wordpress blog?
    2)Seems like I’m using so many steps to simply post pics on blog?? Am I missing something simple??

    If you delete pictures from your media library they will no longer be available on your blog.

    I process and compress my images on my computer, then simply upload to my blogs. (Photos I keep are on my hard-drive and backup.) Some pictures are on Flickr because I use a slideshow in a sidebar sometimes.

    Thanks Tess…so once I use up the free space in the media library I’ll have to purchase space right?

    I have been here for 6 and 3/4 years and I still have lots of space for media. “You are currently using 77.6 MB out of 3.0 GB upload limit (3%).”

    thanks timethief…I have issues when it comes to the concept of MB and GB!!:)

    3.0 GB is a lot of space. You’re welcome. :)
