I agree Playbook does not have a proper file manager, despite there being an icon with that description.

I, too, am disappointed with that aspect of the PlayBook. However, I manage photos by connecting my PB to my laptop.
By using device manager, the PB is mapped to a drive on my laptop. From there, I use the photo editing software on my laptop to enhance the pics.
The steps are:
1. Connect PB to laptop/computuer using the USB connection.
2. Allow laptop to install the Device Manager. It will ask for your PB password. (Will only have to install the device manager once, but must enter the PW any time you connect to the laptop/computer.)
3. Have the photo editing software on your laptop open. (I use Adobe Photoshop Elements 9).
4. Go to my My Computer and open the mapped drive on your laptop
5. Open the camera folder
6. Right click on the pic you wish to enhance and open it with your photo editing software
7. Have fun with the pic
8. Save As .jpg to your camera folder Unfortunately, the file name will not show on the PB
These are a lot of steps, though they are quick.
Additionally, you may create folders by following steps 1 through 5. Then relpace 6 - 8 with the steps below:
6. After opening the camera folder, just create new folders
7. name them
8. and drag and drop your pics into them. You can also drag and drop pics resident on your laptop into your camera folders.
When you open the pictures or camera icon on the PB you will now see your pics categorized into albums.
Hope this helps.
