Moving Photos

Is there a photo gallery application that allows you to move photos from one folder to another? I use a File Manager to do this, but I'm trying to help out a novice user on an Evo; the Evo Photos application doesn't seem to allow you to move photos.

I've searched the forums and the Market, but have come up empty, so far.

Can anyone help out here?

thanks!

Not that I'm aware of. I'm not sure a photo app that allows you to move photos would be much easer than a file manager anyway as the photo app would have to essentially include a file manager. I mean, navigating the SD card folders is navigating the SD card folders no matter how you approach it. You still have to deal with the same folder structure.

Thanks for the thoughtful answer. You are probably right. Still it would seem that a photo manager could allow you to move photos from DCIM to any folder that already has image files in it (the standard Photos app knows which folders have images in them); allowing the user to create a new image folder would definitely involve exposing the user to the folder structure of the SD card.

I guess I'll just have to teach her Astro or AndExplorer or EStrong FM.

Thanks!
