Invisible buttons on DA?

Anyone else have this problem where there should be a button there is nothing but blank space? The delete folder button (it may be called something else but I wouldn't know since I cannot farking see it ) is not there I just found it accidentally by angrily button mashing around the vicinity of the folders after looking all over for a button to get rid of an extra folder I didn't want. The button for "new folder" is there but not edit/delete folder.

Also missing were the "what picture do you want to upload" buttons but I know from practice what piece of invisible space to click on to make the upload from my computer window appear. (this button which has been absent since I started submitting to DA appeared out of nowhere about a month ago)

My question (other than is this just me or do others have this problem) then is I want to organize my folders into a different order but after digging through (the very poorly laid out) FAQ I found the steps where it tells me to go to the browse tab in my gallery and click the blue "edit" button... which as you probably guessed doesn't exist. GRRRR!

I'm sure some people must be able to see the button, can someone take a screen cap of where the edit button is located so I know what section of invisible space to click on?

P.S. I looked both in Firefox and IE6 to make sure it wasn't just a browser issue.

Just went and checked my gallery.

When I hover my mouse over a folder in the left pane, I get a little pencil icon. Clicking it gives me the following options:

Rename this Folder
Delete this Folder...
Edit this Widget

Here's the requested screenshot:

Thanks Kheldarn but if you read the OP I figured out how to delete a folder I'm looking for the blue "Edit" button (it's supposed to be under the browse tab in your gallery) that will let me reorganize the folders and put them in order. Edit this widget does not provide an option for putting folders into a specific order.

But at least I know that button looks like a pencil now because on my screen it looks like this...

What exactly you trying to do? If you're just trying to reorganize the order the files are in you can just drag and drop them....

I tried that (and every other common way I could think of) but when I drag and drop the folders they just jump right back into the wrong order as soon as I let go of them.

What I want is to move the folder I just created (2011 FArt contest) up to the top so there is no need to scroll down the page to see it.

ok, well I am using Explorer and if I drag a folder and drop it when it's on top of another one it ends up above it and the one it was on and everything below all slip down one... Not sure why that would work for me but not you but I've tested several times now to be sure and it does work for me...

And if that's all you want done, and you trust me, change you pass, pm me the new one, I'll make the change and then you can change your pass again... (after I post all kinds of pics of my bum all over your page!)

Edit: Never mind I got drag and drop to work in IE8 (still doesn't work in FF or IE6) on another one of my computers here.
I would still like to know where the edit button is though if someone can post a screenshot or just tell me where it is.

Could be, in which case they need to update their FAQ. Thanks for looking though both of you, it's tough to tell between invisible buttons that exist and invisible buttons that are no longer there.
