You should only see it on posts that you have made today. If you made them more than 24 hours ago the link is deactivated along with, the ability to edit your posts and or captions on pictures.

The edit window is, at most, around an hour.
It is not 24 hours.
The option is already gone on my posts made around 8:30EST this morning.

Hey my first quilt took 3 1/2 years to finish. Of course part of that was due to the fact that I didn't own a sewing machine and had to borrow my teachers' machine. Then there was the fact that my teacher lived an hour away and had two small kids.

My second quilt, which I did completely alone, took just shy of two years, and most of that was spent trying to machine quilt it. In the end I gave up and hand quilted it.

I can't believe he lost it. ;-( I kept my first quilt for myself, but my first solo project was a birthday gift for my favorite girl cousin.

For your next project, you just have to shoot for less time, at least that's what I do. I try and keep all my projects under 3 1/2 years. So far so good, but I'm keeping my fingers crossed.

Well color me wrong, I've never noticed how long it stays really, I always thought it was a day. *shrugs* I rarely change my posts so, I stand corrected. You learn something new everyday. :-D

Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
P.S. The instructions on this site say "click the Browse button and select the file"--what browse button?
If you're adding a pic to an existing post, you only need to click reply or quote reply, highlighted below, and then follow the same steps as before.
Tried that. Didn't work. But thanks

I'm glad you got the photo in. The quilt looks great.
