Hi - not sure exactly how to word it for searches but my specific 'issue' is that I'm working on some 360 panoramic images for use in a virtual 360 tour (so it reallllly doesn't matter in the end) and I'm looking for a way to 'tell' Photoshop which image I want to be centre-most when looking at the flat image.

I've tried renaming, reordering, locking a layer, putting that layer at the bottom... nothing seems to work. When using Auto-Align Layers (I'm currently on CS3 at work for this project, have CS5 personally), it just seems to keep putting 'this' image as first one on the left no matter what I do.

Could it be time of day stamps or something? I think that was the first image I shot in the series.

Thanks.
Jeff
