Please do remove all limitations. There are many cases where it is essential to be able to modify a post even years after the fact - for example, I maintain the Ivan sticky at RC Groups and am still editing the first few posts over 10 years after the thread was first begun. This allows people new to the thread to see all the updated information right at the very beginning without having to read through hundreds or thousands of pages of discussion.
The ability to edit indefinitely is a double-edged sword. On one hand, people obviously want to update information as it changes. On the other, we want to keep information up and available to all, preserving content. LukeZ, could you direct me to threads on THIS SITE that you would want to edit?

You cannot delete/edit any of the previous uploaded pictures.
Do you get the following message: "The link you clicked on has an incorrect member id. To find a member's gallery, enter all or part of the member's username above where indicated."?

If not, could you post a screenshot that shows the different boxes you get for pictures before/after the changeover?
