Build A Better Mousetrap - Reorder and Rename

[JudyKay]

Now we can easily drop images into a template simply by renaming them something predictable like 001.jpg, 002.jpg, etc. Sometimes I have quite a few photos, maybe 50 or more that I want to drop into a template, but the order is wrong. Other times I want a specific number of images to fit specific templates which I may place end to end in a project file.

Is there a way to visually reorder slides and then rename them according to the new order--such as 001.jpg, 002.jpg, etc.?

We can reorder photos in PTE but cannot rename them by the new order. We can reorder images and rename by the new order in Irfanview, but that seems cumbersome and error prone (I goof up some detail almost every time!). Anyone have a better idea?

Did you try to create a slide style from your template? When applying a style you do not need to rename images.

Oh this forum is a beautiful thing! Why didn't I ask sooner? Bridge does exactly what I want.

And yes I am pretty much abandoning templates for styles for some things.

Great solutions. Totally resolved. Thank you both!
