- Go to www.twicsy.com
- Find the 'More info' icon and click it
- It will slide/drop down. On the right, there will be a list of four options, 'Remove me!' being the last option. Yes, it's camouflaged. Crazy! I missed it the first time!
- Click 'Remove me!"
- Type your Twitter handle in the field. WAIT, don't click submit yet. Read the below note.
- "If your Twitter account is still active please log in with Twitter and then delete your data from Twicsy. (This will NOT affect your Twitter account!)
- You will not need to click on the blue link in that note.
- Click on the "Submit" button 'To remove your Twitter data from Twicsy...blah blah blah..."
- DON'T freak out. You need not email anyone. Still with me?
- Top right corner, click on 'Sign In"
- Click on 'Login with Twitter'
- Enter your Twitter handle and password
- Click on 'Authorize app'
- You will be logged into Twicsy and asked "Are you sure you want to remove all your data from Twicsy?"
- Click the link "Yes, remove @YourTwitterHandle!"
- Notification will show that "You have been deleted!"
- Note: I did not sign out of Twicsy I stayed logged in, but 'X'd out of the window and did other things on my computer
- Wait 10-15 minutes and go back to twicsy.com
- You should see an egghead as your 'Twicsy' profile pic (this is because I didn't sign out)
- You'll also see 'User Deleted' and 'No pics found!'.
- Now, sign out. For good. No more Twicsy.
Be sure to tell your friends and family about this Twicsy and their sneaky sneaky selves!
**01/02/2016 - Addition (sorry so delayed!) from a reader and his friend back in March 2015 (Which means the information I'm posting here now, below may be not as current, but still helpful. Hopefully.)** He sent an email asking for assistance after reading this blog post. After a few emails back and forth and a collaborative effort reaching out to Twicsy directly, here is additional information regarding removing yourself from Twicsy AND videos from Vine as well.
I emailed twicsy@searchles.com and asked:
"What other means is available to request the removal of pictures via a Twitter account that has been deleted?
Thank you for your guidance!"
The auto-responder was comprehensive, but nothing regarding removing videos (but I'll include info on Twitter via Vine (I think) videos further down):

I relayed this information to the individual who asked for my assistance. This did indeed help.
Now, regarding Twitter videos via Vine (..again, I think...not entirely sure on the dynamics of videos on Twitter/Vine). His friend (the one who needed to delete her stuff from Twicsy) emailed regarding removal of videos on Vine and this link was provided:
https://support.twitter.com/forms/vine
I never go on Vine, so I can't give any insight on the above link to Vine or anything Vine related.
