Pictures in Drop Box arranged by Folder
Is there any way I can move folders with pictures set up in DropBox to the Photos/Album feature ? All the photos in my DropBox show in Time Line but by date. Sure would be easier to move the already ...

They have to be. They cannot appear on the Photos page without already being in a folder, somewhere. If these are photos that are uploading from one of your linked devices, then that may be the Camera Uploads folder. If they're photos that you've added manually, then they'll be in whatever folder you've uploaded them to.
The question is how do I move a photo into a specific folder I created?From the Photos page, use the Show in folder option I mentioned above to locate which folder a particular file is in. Once you're in that folder and the file is selected, just move it to whichever folder you want it to be in.
The question is how do I move a photo into a specific folder I created? I guess it is as easy as drag and drop the file into the folder but when you have hudnreds of picture files that is not easy. It would be easier if I could select the photos from the photo page or albums I set up but it doesn't appear that Dropbix has that functionality. I want to do this because albums do not appear on my iPad only files and folders and photo page. Also, to your point that photos show up in folders that's only when you've added them to a specific folder, which is what I am trying to do.

Thanks but when you upload a file without selecting a specifc folder it adds it to "dropbox". Maybe you can consider it the dropbox folder. When I right click and select show in folder, it simply brings me back to where it already is. To move it to a folder I created I have to drag and drop and when you have a large number of files it is not easy. It would be easier if there was a "move to folder" or "change folder" option when you right click on the photo. This would be a convenient enhancenet to Dropbox.
