When someone shares an inworld snapshot you would expect it to go in your photo's folder. Instead it finds it's way to textures. I suggest a "Photo Inbox" folder. What do you think Torley? =)

Dang, you have an AWESOME name, Wrestling. :) What you point out is an interesting inconsistency: what's also fascinating is that apart from the specific icon, "photos" and "textures" are functionally the same, the primary difference being: photos are uploaded from inworld screenshots, while textures are uploaded from external sources (like your hard drive).

You can always accumulate a large batch and then click while holding Ctrl and multi-drag-and-drop them. Altho this may prove tedious if you get lots of photos, I understand.

What I think is, I'm always for better sorting and organization--

We do have a new Recent Items tab which provides an inbox-like view, explained more in the "You've Got Inventory" guide. And longer-term plans are in the works to sort stuff better, whether it's photos or whatever, the way you want it.
