Photoshop Elements Uploader

The Photoshop Elements upload interface is proving to be almost unusable...

• The albums are listed as Category->Album ... When subcategories exist they are not included. For example,
  • Using this structure on SmugMug
    • Category: School
      • SubCategory: Child #1
        • Album: School Portraits
      • SubCategory: Child #2
        • Album: School Portraits
      • SubCategory: Child #3
        • Album: School Portraits
  • Results in the following in the SmugMug/Elements upload screen
    • School->Portraits
    • School->Portraits
    • School->Portraits
  • While I may be able to differentiate the albums by the displayed thumbnail, there is no guarantee
• To further complicate matters the Category->Album identifiers appear to be in no particular order ... Can't they at least be sorted???
  • While this is not a problem if you have only 10 or 20 albums, it becomes a significant time waster as the number of albums increases.

Is there any way to fix the Elements/SmugMug clumsy interface?

Thanks,

Hi, we'll certainly look into it - but subcategory albums are indeed included - I just verified. Please confirm you are NOT seeing a subcat album, and link me to the album? Thanks.

I think my original statements were not entirely clear. The sub-category albums are indeed included in the Elements/SmugMug upload interface, however if the album is a child of a sub-category, the name of the sub-category does not appear. For example, I (snadboy.smugmug.com) have an album named 'George Paul' which is in the sub-category 'Misc', which is in the category 'Family' - the Elements/SmugMug upload screen displays only 'Family > George Paul'; the sub-category name is missing. If you reference my previous posting's example about 'School Portraits' you can see how this is confusing.

Any updates on this issue?
