How to delete uploaded photos from Blogspot's server?

When you upload photos while writing a blog post, the image code automatically appears and sometimes you wonder where it is saved.

In case you don't know, they are actually uploaded and saved into Picasa Web Albums linked to your Google Account, which is the also the account you use to log-in Blogspot.

Once you're in Picasa, you might need to log-in with your Google account. After that, you'll see your available albums.

You'll be able to see albums for all the blogs associated with your Google account. There is a special album "Blogger Pictures" just for your uploaded profile pictures as well.

Click on any of the albums to view the photos you've uploaded.

Every album has a limit of 1000 photos and a new album will be automatically created when a current album is full.

With that, you'll be able to upkeep the album and delete any unnecessary not-used photos uploaded previously.

Duplicates are advised to be deleted as well because it saves space. But be careful not to delete images that are currently in-use in your blog, or else the image link will be broken and will not be displayed on your blog.

If you have uploaded a photo bigger than the default 400px x 400px maximum width and height on Blogspot and would like to display its original size, here's how.

Here's a demonstration: You uploaded this (tiger) picture onto your Blogspot (which is originally larger at 1071px x 1600px), and you want it to be displayed on a bigger scale. What you need to do is to look at the HTML section of the particular blog post.

Look for the code lines for the picture. It will look somehow like this.

<a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8c5xKOBdDcQ8tQKPvxfs7PKqb8axwCvH0YEtU77TYU1OK-Xi42cKWobBnVtSkwsYJa5mOdjMZJiZKMJ-h7IOSQOgyG4oa2d41IT1XLwkOZsOzcn2jpH8pnSxdVPDmi3uD6XkLJnuEBTYD/s1600/IMG_5331.JPG" onblur="try {parent.deselectBloggerImageGracefully();} catch(e) {}"><img style="display: block; margin: 0px auto 10px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; width: 400px; height: 300px;" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEitqkvboK545Ri5iLu1OVXvBcvoE6mr_2eQ5B7mqVHFQ7ptFdyMiuq1F8XAi18_FJISk_4GCZT05Nm8UX3faLqft2y7qrizCCyGq_DsC9RCfLQy0zg_ELYAFr2sCHC_NH2JNVlAaRq3jADj/s400/DSC_0232.JPG" alt="" id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5466089975697168450" border="0" /></a>

Firstly, remove "width: 400px; height: 300px;" from the code. If you don't, the image stays at whatever size indicated by these 2 values.

Then, all you need to do is to change the URL's (highlighted in Orange) "s400" or "s320" (depending on your default upload size) part.

Change it to:
  • s800 - for medium size.
  • s1600 - for full size.
Also, you can change it to s[any value], where [any value] represents the preferred width of the image. (Example - s500, s900, etc, but no more than s1600)

For this example, it's s800. When it's changed to s800, the medium size of the photo shown.

Now the displayed photo size is 536px x 800px.

Likewise, change it to "s1600" if you want to display to full size of the photo. Any value more than "1600" will not work.

Take note: s800 and s1600 has no connection with the height and width, and may show different results compared to the demonstration shown here. It varies depending on the original size of your uploaded photo.

Any questions are welcomed.
