I'm using 4.7 and have photo galleries located here http://stlphotoblogs.com/gallery

What I would like to do is, after a user submits a photo, for the original sized photo to be deleted from the server. Is that possible? A setting I'm missing in the image gallery module? I know I can hide the ability for users to view the original size photo, but I'd like to have it removed all together to save server space.

Any help or advice would be greatly appreciated, I'm lost!

There is no way that I know of to do that, already built in. You could do it manually or here is something that could automate it for you.

Either the standard cron.php provided by drupal or the poormanscron module.

I am looking for the same thing, away to just keep the thumb and preview and automatically delete the original on upload.
