thumbnail sorting and renaming

Hello to all,

I have various large collections of photographs, many the same type of
subject or taken in the same area. I ask for your help in finding a
freeware graphics software to do the following tasks.

Over time I have various lists that I wish to combine into their common
subject areas, like with like. The files in the directories have names
that I wish to change, so the question is, is there a program that
shows the lists of names and the thumbnail picture that I can then
click and drag the files into the order I wish, then selectively rename
those files names I want to. I will then have a set of pictures that I
can view or project in the order that I want, rather than a list that
is just in a alphabetical order. Does that make sense?

Anyway, thank in advance for your assistance

regards

John

ISTM it might make more sense to use a program like FotoAlbum that will
let you group image files any way you like without renaming or moving them.

THE Rename
Company: -- Author: Hervé Thouzard
(Donationware) (free)
Windows OS: Windows 95/98/ME/2000/XP; Windows Server 2003
Languages: English; French; Italian
Description: THE Rename is a program designed to help you to rename
files and folders en masse with a number of possibilities and options.
You can rename a series of files with a counter: pict0001.jpg,
pict0002.jpg, pict0003.jpg... You can rename files so the prefix is in
upper case and the extension is in lower case. The program is useful for
people who publish pages on Internet and need to convert file names to
lower case. The file attribute changer is a very useful option for
anyone using a CD recorder. You can rename pictures with their width and
height. You can rename audio files (MP3, VQF, OGG and WMA files) based
on their internal tags. You can rename files and folders If you have a
digital camera, THE Rename can use (EXIF) tags that your camera include
inside photos NOTES: Uninstall old versions before updating. COMMENTS:
Adds a lot of entries to the registry,
