When preparing a slide-show, or a lecture, or a sequence for emailing, it is very necessary (essential) to re-arranging photographs (held in a folder in My Pictures) into a personal desired-sequence. In Windows XP this could all be accomplished simply and effectively. It was easy to drag and drop photographs to new positions, add
extra photographs from elsewhere via copy/pasting them into a desired position, or deleting unwanted ones. After renumbering the new sequence, they could be re-arranged numerically with one click via Sort By.
Now with Windows 7 the process is a nightmare, in fact it is a mess! Even after installing 'Disabling Auto-arrange' (Comment above 2-04-2011) which at least allows dragging and dropping thumbnails, but the remaining requirements (adding in extra photographs, deleting others, renumbering the sequence, etc)
