How do I get my categories?

How do I get my categories, galleries to be in a certain order I can't figure it out
Clicking the oldies nav bar and the page comes up very long and not the way that I would like, I want them to come up like lets say the flowers nav comes up. what do I do to get them to change to that kind of order.

First you need to see your whole galleries/category box to set the "arrange by"
to "position" instead of "recent". Change this in your CSS so you will see your
whole box on your homepage when logged in. No one else will see it. This will
also give you a quick way to navigate to any category when logged in.

change this

.homepage #galleriesBox,
.homepage #categoriesBox,
.homepage #featuredBox {
    display: none;
}

to this

[B].notLoggedIn [/B].homepage #galleriesBox,
[B].notLoggedIn [/B].homepage #categoriesBox,
[B].notLoggedIn [/B].homepage #featuredBox {
    display: none;
}

You should now see an arrange pick in the upper left of any cat or subcat box.

You might also like this. Formats the thumbs into four columns so the page is
not so long. Add this to your CSS. Reference this thread.

Thanks Allen,
My only wish is that I could remember all the things that you guy's and gal's show me but that's what the forum is for.
