We all have our own pet hates and to be honest the order of images isn't on my radar. No, what gets my motor running is so called alphabetical order and this site is guilty on that score. For instance, a search for Cliff Richard finds him in the 'C's wrong! He should of course be in the 'R's. An even worse crime as far as I'm concerned is including 'The' in an artist name. The Tamperer is simply 'Tamperer', The Tabernacle is simply 'Tabernacle' The Tea Party is simply 'Tea Party' etc etc etc. Look in ANY reference book to find this is correct.
Well there you go, that's my whinge! :grin:

I don't think it's a case of "right" or "wrong". For artist names we use a standard which is to follow what it says on the release itself. We do not exclude "The" if it is there on the release. The Smiths are called The Smiths. They are not called Smiths.

Secondly for alphabetical order it is standard across all the Worlds that artist are sorted by first name. Personally this is also how I do it at home but that's just my preference. Appreciate it may look unusual to those who choose to do it a different way at home, but it isn't "wrong" - it's just a different way (and it isn't about to change I don't think).
