Rearrange Pictures

[mwh710 0]

I have a bunch of pictures that I drop into a New Data disc and I want to arrage them - not by ## or by size. I want to arrange them how I want them. How do I do this?

I suggest putting them in an iPhoto gallery and then batch renaming them in the order they are in the gallery. Data discs use alphanumeric organization by file name. Let's say you name the photos "My favorites-1, My favorites-2". The problem is number 2 will appear after number 19. So if there are fewer than one hundred you need to start with "My favorites-01". If there are more than 100 you need to start with "My favorites-001."

 

You also can put them in smaller groups in folders. The folders need to be in alphanumeric order and the photos inside need to be alphanumeric within just that folder.
