Chris G:
I seem to have this problem regularly but still haven't found a good solution. I currently use Digikam but the problem applies equally to other applications, I haven't found anything that does what I want. I want to select pictures randomly from various places (i.e. from various different Digikam albums) and place them in a new album in a specific order which has nothing to do with their dates, alphanumeric file name or anything of that sort (no pun intended!). *Surely* people want to be able to do this. Currently in my case it's simply because I have taken two sets of photographs of the same trip, one lot in one direction and the other lot in the opposite direction. I want to collate a set of pictures of the trip in 'geographic' order from the best images selected from the two albums. I can't find any way of doing this apart from laboriously renaming each image as I select it and even then if I change my mind and want to add one in the middle somewhere I've got a horrible re-ordering problem again.
You might have tried this already, but let me explain my approach with digiKam:
I store all images in albums named with year/week the pictures were taken. I label all the pictures with different types of data, one being the occation the image was taken at. I then choose to view the images by label instead of by album.
So, in your case, you could create a label for that trip, and a sublabel for 'preferred to view'. Then show the pictures having that label.
