Re-ordering photos in album / slideshow

Love the updates to the photo galleries!

I created an album, uploaded multiple photos simultaneously for it, and created a slideshow. However, I wanted to show a sequence of events in the slideshow -- and the photos were not uploaded in that sequence. It would be nice to be able to change the order of the photos in an album (so that slideshow sequence can be controlled) --- perhaps by adding a "Move" function in the "More tools" actions list for albums. I suppose the way to avoid this problem of mine is to not upload the group of pictures -- but upload them individually in the order needed?

A good suggestion - and you're right you cannot presently set the order after images have been uploaded. New photos, once added, move to the front of the gallery. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

This is something we should be able to do. I have tried and tried to even use some logic when uploading the pics. There is none. I tried naming them so I could upload first in to be last out. It doesn't even do that. It appears the only way to do it would be to upload them one at a time. Sheesh! 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?

yeah, not being able to control the order in an album makes it difficult to show a slide show that depends on an order to the pics.

New feature please (it's just another integer field <g>) ;-)

If it were only an integer field, it would be done. Do you find this valuable?
