I have an imagefield on a content type. One of my users has replaced the image on his node several times. I've noticed now I'm doing a site backup that all the older images he's uploaded are still on the server. Replacing them should delete them.

CCK: 5.x-1.6-1
download: public
imagefield: single value

Can you update to imagefield 1.3?

wait... nm... there isn't an imagefield 1.3 I'm getting confused with imagecache.... Can you test with the 1.2 RC on a test site and see if it fixes your problem?

Cross linking second issue that is different (files not deleted when image/node is deleted) but may be functionally similar http://drupal.org/node/340499

Left over images are cleaned up after 6 hours on cron run. See #292151: Files are not deleted when replaced.
