when several photos are put onto a photo forum thread, how do you set the one that is used for the thumbnail image for the thread?

i have tried everything. i want a certain photo to be the one that represents the thread. i have tried to set them by alphabet, by order uploaded. it seems totally random to me. i upload an image where there are already several, and the spot in order it goes into seems totally random. some go to the top of the list, thus are the one that represents the thread. other new image adds pop into the middle of the list.

is there logic here somewhere i am missing?

I don't think this is actually an option yet; I would however LOVE to see it... I'd also like to see a way of updating descriptions for EACH photo...

It's supposed to display in order of upload. When doing the SQL query to grab the images for the gallery thumbnails, it adds an "order by FILE_ID asc" clause. So, it should be oldest to newest.

In a future version we'll add an option to set a display order.

i dunno if it was fixed but

if you upload 10 + pictures

Picture 10 would appear first.
Then 1,2,3

I'm sure it was fixed?
