    Edit Feature

    Does the "Edit" button for your own posts go away after a certain period of time? Being the perfectionist that I am, when I go back and see a typo or a forgotten word, I like to go back and fix it. However, I noticed that many times the edit feature is no longer available to my posts. Am I just losing it?

    i believe that after 90 minutes the edit option is disabled. this is mainly to keep people from going back and changing their posts after the fact, during a debate, etc.

    If you want to change a picture that was too big, you can upload a smaller version with the same file name. That will overwrite the big one, and should show up the way you want it to in the original post.

    If you (or anyone) has trouble editing a post for images or something important and need help, PM any of the staff members and they can help you with it.
