    is this for a deceased person?

    (and thus could you send a screen shot) to show us what you see.

    Were they memories you added?

    Sometimes a user changes their username which then changes the username across the system

    Perhaps you could give an example of a change that has appeared?

    note that sometimes an item that we uploaded - could also be an item that someone else ALSO uploaded,

    (either because they had a copy of the same jpg file - OR because they downloaded your photo and for whatever reason then uploaded their copy).

    but this would result in BOTH items being displayed. (assuming you are displaying the entire set of items - and not jiust a truncated view)

    Are you 100 % certain that your original upload is not ALSO there - among the items and that what you are looking at is someone else's upload.

    Be sure to click on "More" to see the entire set of items if there are a large number.

    if this is for a deceased person - you can also send us their PID number. so we can check.

    There were a lot of good ideas floated, but not a rock solid answer. This just might be the case.

    but can you point us at the PID / URL of the item in question so we can see what you are referring to?
