Is there a BEST way to add Minis into the Hall of Devotion?

I’m curious if anyone has worked out the best way to add mini pets to the Monument of Devotion in the HOM so that your preferred Minis are front and center.

From what I've seen of others HOM It looks like as you add new minis the previous ones move to the side and eventually move to the back row. – Is this the case?

In reading the Wiki it tells me that the Hall of Monuments Devotion area is considered full once you have added 20 pets, although you may still continue to add minis.

This isn’t a real big deal for me - lol - however, since I do have quite a few minis and will be adding them all at once, and THEN will be looking to add new ones as I get them, I wondered if there was a “better” way to add them. I’m not too impressed with the way we are allowed ( or, in reality NOT allowed ) to order the statues etc in the various sections of the HOM, as we’d like.

Save the best for last? I think I just put mine in, starting with my favorites. I didn't know about only 20 showing tho, I think I'm a few short of that.

I'm guessing if you put the 5 you most want in a row, they'll be able to display in a row even if you add more after them.

but the rearrange option is very limited into a defined number of patterns and sometimes you want X and Z and Y together, but I never have managed to get them in the order i want which is Z,X,Y, its always XYZ or ZYG

You don't know what you're talking about.

Rearrange only rotates them around. Nothing more.

LOL I have 32 minis in my HOM so I think I do know what im talking about. Hit rerange until you have the ones you want showing.

But they only rotate. You can't pick one up and put it in between some others.

Just say you have 15 minis.

And you want 3,6,8,10,11 to display together. You can't.

So, the best thing to do is to figure out in advance which 20 minis you want to display and put them in in the order you'd like to see them. You can then "re-arrange" the display until those 20 are displayed.

Agreed, At this point it seems this is the best we can do.
However, as I currently have more than 20 minis and my first character (of 15) is just coming up on its second birthday I am expecting that I will eventually have a few new minis that I would want in the front row with the other favorites.

Thanks all for the input. There just doesn't seem to be a good solution.
It just seems that the HOM is all about "filling it" with GW2 in mind and very little in the way of actually customizing it to represent your character.

Hmm, adding new minis could be a problem. But, on the other hand, you could hold off on putting any minis into the HoM until you are actually going to start GW2. Or, at least, only put your favorites in there until then.

How often do you actually sit there and stare at your statues or show them to other people?

Not that often.

However, setting up the HOM is a part of the game.
I would prefer to set it up as I'd like.

I have a problem with the titles monument. I just added them in random order, and I can't get the 5 that I want to all show at once. <Rearange> is very limited.
