It looks like it goes by most viewed images. You can see what images have been viewed the most in the manager under stats. I don't think you can change it.

4.0 scares me now. I've made so many changes it would be like starting over. Hopefully, they add some really enticing features to it.

Yeah, that is the problem with upgrades  I first bought the software 4 years ago and made tons of changes to it including a sort I liked better, based on individual keyword performance for each word and image and a credit based purchase system.. then came the announcements that you should really upgrade the software due to a massive security hole..... then I lost hope and just abandoned it.  Now I just started over, it probably makes sense to wait for 4.0 before making any major changes.

I really hope they change the layout in 4.0

I like that you can move the html pages to say Dreamweaver and change them to templates. That way, make changes on one page and it updates the whole site. No more dealing with php pages. That it a welcome change, for sure.

Can you do that now?  or will that be in a future release?  I may have to fork over the cash for Dreamweaver once and for all. 

According to the link that Dan posted, they are implementing the ability to create a template from an html page in version 4. They are calling them smarty templates. AFAIK, presently the php pages open in Dreamweaver and the code can be changed, but in order to see the page in its design form, one must install MAMP or WAMP for PC (local server) to view the php pages. I haven't been too successful at getting that to work properly. 

Yeah, I think I had that problem at first, too.

Not necessarily.  Just trying to gain some control over what Popularity is.  I might want to place a weight on Sales and another on Views, and create a custom Popularity sort.  I just don't know which file this is happening in, or if it hard coded by Ktools.

Ah - the sort order is controlled by just one variable, and it can be changed, but it's still one dimensional. There's no easy way to create a weighted matrix of factors. (until v4)
