What could a shoe shine guy teach a wedding photographer about their business? I just came across the ratty old Youtube video below, which features one of the best salesmen ever. It's short, very funny (I think) and full of insight. RIP Zig Ziglar, who died recently aged 86.

Now you’re doing your own publishing, you have more to concern yourself with than the quality of your images. Of course people will judge you by those. You do so yourself. But they’ll also judge you by your writing, your tone of voice, your graphic design sensibilities.

I’m always reminded of it at trade shows when people look at our albums and say things like, “They're so beautiful, To View More >>

If you haven't noticed, when you upload your images they can do so at different speeds, and then show up in Workspace out of order. So how do we "sort" this out? Well there are two parts to it. Are you wanting to sort your Collection in Workspace, or do you want to change the order your images appear on your website, eg in a slideshow? Sorting the Collection. Just above your thumbnail images there are options to sort by file name, date or manually. To change the order manually, just drag the image thumbnail to a new position. Pretty straightforward stuff. Sorting for your website. This takes a To View More >>
