[support] Views help

[Carl Wiedemann]

This can be approached in several ways.

Nodequeue http://drupal.org/project/nodequeue

Draggable Views http://drupal.org/project/draggableviews

Additionally, using CCK you can use a parent content type with a multi-value
node reference field and display the view at the bottom of the parent node.
This is useful for creating multiple gallery instances and things like
that. http://drupal.org/project/views_attach might also be relevant
