I would delete this post and tomorrow after Houzz has fixed this glitch just repot the pic in the other post in jpeg format.

I've tried to delete this one multiple times, that wont even work.

If you are using the app, it won't work. You have to delete in a browser.

Use Safar on your phone log in again, and you can delete!

Try dark charcoal Chalk paint on old boards and then scrape and sand some of it off.

I found this article that says it can be sanded and scraped:

Can chalk paint be sanded off? If you painted something with chalk paint and have decided it didn't look as great as you hoped it would, or if you're just in the mood to make some home decor changes, it's not too difficult to remove the old chalk paint. In most situations, you can remove chalk paint by scraping it or sanding it off.

If the boards are already distressed looking, use a semi-transparent Ebony wood stain instead of the paint.
