I have noticed from time to time that when I add an image to my favourites folder it is not readily apparent that I have. I have found .. at times ... my most 'recent' adds well into the pages of that folder.
The sorting option is there ... but, doesn't seem to work correctly.
I would prefer to have it sorted as date added though just for my own personal reference sake.
As at times, I will 'fav a work first' as a way of bookmarking the image, so's I can go back and pay my proper respects with a commentary after the fact.
Not that I know too much about these things, but I imagine the upload date is stored somewhere in the information relating to that image when it is uploaded. Therefore to sort your favourites in the date you added each image the date you favourited each one would have to be stored somewhere in the information relating to the image, and ditto for each other member who favourited the image... could become rather messy after a while.
I would suggest fav'ing on the day it is uploaded ... or .. send the artist a PM asking them to re-upload on the day you discover it .. so that you can fav it with a relevant date
Ehh ... what's a couple of thousand more lines of code? :oP
To be ... ahem ... clear however, I don't mean to imply that I wait days on end to go back to the image fav'd. Usually I just order my activities on the site here in any one session logged in.
And have had to go back through several pages, meaning three or more, as I have at times ... and my initial thought was in those occurrences that perhaps I had forgotten to fav it in the first place.

Just an f.y.i..
