Scrapbook slideshow changing picture order

Can anyone explain to me why the scrapbook theme is changing my picture order? If I create a new slideshow with any other theme, it leaves my picture order correct, but if I use scrapbook, it rearranges the order. Suggestions?

imac, Mac OS X (10.5.6)

Are you selecting an album and using the Play button at the bottom of the iPhoto window? In that mode there's a shuffle option that may be checked in the Settings pane.

There is no shuffle option from standard slideshows created using the "+" button at the bottom of the iPhoto window.

No. I've actually created a new slideshow and inserted slides in the order I want. The other slideshow themes (classic, Ken Burns, etc) do not rearrange the order of the slides. Only the Scrapbook theme rearranges the order.

This is happening with me as well. How do I make the order stay the same as the order of the album?

The Scrapbook theme needs a Portrait oriented photo for the first slide. If your Album has a Landscape oriented shot at the beginning then iPhoto will change things to find a Portrait shot.
