Hi Jim and welcome to ArtFreaks.com!
I hope to have a Forums and Gallery up and running at shipfotos.com before too long - which will be more specialized for ship photographers and enthusiasts...
The easiest way to get your photos in the right order, is to upload them in reverse order! (It sounds a bit daft but it does actually make sense if you are keeping a live album and adding new photos from time-to-time...)
Once you have uploaded your images to an album, you can't actually move individual images around. You can, however, change the display order of an entire album...
Click on your profile name at the top right-hand side of this page,
Select My Gallery
Click on Controls > Edit my albums
Against the album that you want to edit, go to the drop-down menu where it says Select an operation
Select Edit
Scroll down to the bottom of the page and you will see three different input fields where you can sort your album by things like uploaded date, ascending/descending, date to start the sorting from, etc, etc
When you are finished, click on the Eit Album button in order to complete the edit.
'Hope this helps! Any problems, don't hesitate to either PM or E-mail me.
