(7) How to delete one or more pictures

This article is part (7) of a multi-part earthli Albums tutorial.

In addition to adding and editing pictures, you’re invariably going to need to delete some as well. There are a couple of ways to do this, but let’s start off—as always—where we left off in the navigation tutorial with the Galapagos home page, as shown below:

To select a single picture for deletion, hover over the small “command” triangle (1) next to it, then select “Delete” (2) from the menu. You’ll be taken to a confirmation page, as shown below:

If you want to make sure that you’re removing the correct picture, select the small triangle (1) next to the preview box to show the picture. To continue, press “Yes” (2). You’ll be returned to the album home page.

Alternatively, you can delete a picture from its home page, as shown below:

Hover the mouse over the “Commands” menu (1) and select “Delete” from the menu to go to the delete-confirmation page shown in the previous step.
